[47] In this manner the word was formerly accented. See Dr Farmer's
"Essay on the Learning of Shakspeare."

[48] Go. So in Epilogue--

"With violent hands he that his life doth end,
His damned soul to endless night doth _wend_."

Again, in the "Return from Parnassus," 1600, act v. sc. 4--

"These my companions still with me must _wend_."

In "George a Green Pinner of Wakefield," [Dyce's "Greene and Peele,"
1861, p. 259, &c.]--

"Wilt thou leave Wakefield and _wend_ with me ...
So will I _wend_ with Robin all along ...
For you are wrong, and may not _wend_ this way."

And in Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales," Prologue, line 19--

"Byfel, that, on that sesoun on a day,
In Southwerk at the Tabbard as I lay,
Redy to _wenden_ on my pilgrimage,
To Canturbury with ful devout corage."

[51] _Euripus Euboicus_, or _Chalcidicus_, is a narrow passage of sea
dividing _Attica_ and the Island of _Euboea_, now called the _Gulf of
Negropont_. It ebbs and flows seven times every day: the reason of
which, it is said, when Aristotle could not find, he threw himself into
the sea with these words: _Quia ego non capio te, tu capias me_. Sir
Thomas Brown, in his "Enquiries into Vulgar Errors," b. vii. c. 14,
appears to have been not satisfied with this account of Aristotle's
death, which he has taken some pains to render doubtful.

[52] [Go]. So act ii. sc. 3--

"Therefore my counsel is you shall not stir,
Nor farther _wade_ in such a case as this,"

And in Turbervile's "Tragical Tales," 1587--

"Eare thou doe _wade_ so farre, revoke to minde the bedlam boy.
That in his forged wings of waxe reposed too great a joy."

[53] _Sadly_, in most of our ancient writers, is used as here for
_seriously_. So in Nash's "Lenten Stuff," 1599: "Nay, I will lay no
wagers, for, now I perponder more _sadly_ upon it, I think I am out
indeed."

Again, in Hall's "Chronicle," 1550, fo. 2: "His cosyn germaine was nowe
brought to that trade of livynge, that he litle or nothynge regarded the
counsaill of his uncles, nor of other grave and _sadde_ persones, but
did all thynge at his pleasure."

In Ascham's "Toxophilus," 1571: "And when I sawe not you amonges them,
but at the last espyed you lookinge on your booke here so _sadlye_, I
thought to come and hold you with some communication."

And in Warton's "Life of Sir Thomas Pope," p. 30: "Wherein is an a
