19. prithee
Alice Walker noted B's constant use of the spelling prethee in the early sections of the Folio. In the Paviers, B normalized a total of twenty-six (+J6) occurrences of ten different spellings of prithee all to his preferential prethee. He follows one copy prithee, sets one justified copy prithe as prithee, and follows one copy prethe. B's habit in the Paviers coincides, therefore, with Walker's observation of his treatment of prithee in the early parts of the Folio.
