Resolve＇ Seems to meandissolve （compare 〃our bodies turn

here。
Barbarous＇ Qy。 〃O barbarous〃？ in the next line but one；
〃O treacherous〃？ and in the last line of the speech； 〃O bloody〃？
But we occasionally find in our early dramatists lines which are
defective in the first syllable； and in some of these instances
at least it would almost seem that nothing has been omitted by
the transcriber or printer。
artier＇ i。e。 artery。 This form occurs again in the SEC。
PART of the present play： so too in a copy of verses by Day；

harpy＇ So the 8vo。The 4to 〃Harper；〃 and with that
reading the line is cited； in a note on MACBETH； act iv。 sc。 1；
by Steevens； who also gives 〃tires UPON my life；〃 but 〃TIRES〃
（a well…known term in falconry； and equivalent here topreys）
is to be pronounced as a dissyllable。 （In the 4to it in spelt
〃tyers。〃

Christians renied＇ i。e。 Christians who have denied； or
renounced their faith。In THE GENT。 MAGAZINE for Jan。 1841；

cited； compare the following；
〃And that Ydole is the God of false Cristene； that han
RENEYED hire FEYTHE。〃
THE VOIAGE AND TRAVAILE OF SIR JOHN MAUNDEVILE；

line above ends with that word）。

Re…enter Bajazeth； pursued by Tamburlaine＇ The old eds。
have；
〃Bajazeth flies； and he pursues him。 The battell short

after Bajazeth and Tamburlaine had entered； a short combat was
to take place between them。
