uplet in Burton's _Anatomy of Melancholy_:-- "And ever and anon she thinks upon the man, That was so fine, so fair, _so blith, so debonaire_." P. 3. Sc. 2. p. 603. ed. 1621. 4to. And in Randolph's _Aristippus_,-- "A bowle of wine is wondrous boone chere To make one _blith, buxome, and deboneere_." P. 13. ed. 1630. 4to. On l. 27. (G.):-- "_Manes._ Didst thou not find I did _quip_ thee? "_Psyllus._ No, verily; why, what's a _quip_? "_Manes._ We great girders call it a short saying of a sharp wit, with a bitter sense in a sweet word." _Alexander and Campaspe, Old Plays_, vol. ii. p. 113. ed. 1780. "Then for your Lordship's _Quippes_ and quick jestes, Why Gesta Romanorum were nothing to them." _Sir Gyles Goosecappe_, a Com., Sig. G. 2. 4to. 1606. _Crank_ is used in a different sense by Drayton:-- "Like Chanticleare he crowed _crank_, And piped full merily." Vol. iv. p. 1402. ed. 1753. On l. 31. (M.):-- "There dainty Joys laugh at white-headed Caring." _Fletcher's Purple Island_, C. vi. St. 35. On l. 42. (G.):-- "The cheerful lark, mounting from early bed, With sweet salutes awakes the drowsy Light; The earth shee left, and up to Heaven is fled: There chants her Maker's praises out of sight." _Purple Island_, C. ix. St. 2. "From heaven high to chase the cheareless darke, With mery note her lowd salutes the morning larke." _Faery Queene_, B. i. c. 11. On l. 45. (G.):-- "The chearful birds, chirping him sweet good-morrow, With nature's music do beguile his sorrow." _Sylvester's Du Bartas._ On l. 67. (G.) See note already inserted in "NOTES AND QUERIES," p. 316. On l. 75. (G.):-- "In May the meads are not so _pied with flowers_." _Sylvester's Du Bartas._ On l. 78. (G.) So in _Comus_:-- "And casts a gleam over the _tufted grove_." v. 225. On l. 80. (G.):-- "Loadstar of Love and Loadstone of all hearts." _Drummond._ On l. 117. (Anon.) See extracts from the _Diary of a Lover of Literature_. To me this line seems to allude to the imagination in sleep:-- "Such sights as youthful poets dream." On l. 121. (G.):-- "Yet served I, gentles, seeing _store_ _Of dainty girls_ beside." _Albion's England_, p. 218. 4to. 1602. On l. 125. (G.):--
