Volume Iii Part 137 (2/2)
p. 139, l. 15 _not yet_. 1724 repeats 'not yet'.
p. 140, l. 2 _froward_. 1724 'forward',
p. 143, l. 21 _They dance_. 4tos add 'with Don', which seems unsuitable as the company are seated.
p. 147, l. 22 _Exit Cap_. I have added this necessary direction, not in any previous edition, although all mark his entry again a little later.
p. 152, l. 15 _the body of Francisco_. 4tos 1682 and 1697. 1724 omits 'the body of'.
p. 156, l. 29 _glout_. 1724 'glut'.
p. 158, l. 6 _Mahometan_. 1724 repeats 'Mahometan'.
p. 158, l. 33 _And wou'd not break_. These two lines, which are obviously metrical, all former editions print as prose.
p. 163, l. 19 _and Mutes attending_. I have added these words as Carlos addresses the mutes a little later in the scene.
p. 163, l. 21 _your_. 1724 'thy'.
p. 166, l. 13 _Sir, I'll warrant_. 1724 omits 'Sir'.
p. 167, l. 15 _that's the greatest_. 1724 omits 'that's'.
p. 168, l. 30 _Aside_. 1724 omits.
THE LUCKY CHANCE.
p. 177 _The Lucky Chance_. On the t.i.tle of the 4to 1687, we have 'This may be Printed, _April 23_, 1686. _R.P_.'
p. 183, l. 1 _To The Right Honourable_. This Dedication and the Preface (p. 185) are only found in the 4to 1687. p. 190 _Dramatis Personae_.
have added to the list '_Gingle_, a Music Master; A Post-man; _Susan_, Servant to Sir _Feeble; Phillis, Leticia's_ Woman.'
p. 191, l. 20 _Enter Mr. Gingle_. I have inserted Gingle's name. All previous editions read 'Enter several with Musick.'
p. 194, l. 5 _Dudgeon_. 4to 1687 'Dugion'.
p. 199, l. 13 _I have had ... Guyneys_. These words have by a curiously gross error been dropped out in all editions save the 4to 1687.
p. 202, l. 30 _all but for_. 1724 omits 'but'.
p. 203, l. 10 _so, I'll go_. 1724 'so, and I'll go'.
p. 203, l. 27 _Then then_. All previous editions read 'Then thou' which makes no sense. The emendation, if not what Mrs. Behn wrote, is at least grammatical.
