Manuscript Misreadings
A number of errors in F are such that it is hard to imagine that they
are
misreadings of the printed quarto copy. They appear to be misread
manuscript literals. These are easily explained as the annotator's
misreadings
of the promptbook or, if the book was a non-authorial transcript, as errors
committed when the promptbook was prepared. In
either case they will indicate annotation (however mistaken). Variants of
this
kind are:
| 1.1.57 |
62 |
doubled/doubly |
| 1.2.42 |
259 |
complaine/complaint |
| 1.3.28 |
325 |
plated/placed |
| 1.3.71 |
368 |
vigour/rigour |
| 1.4.28 |
602 |
smiles/soules |
| 3.2.112 |
