• Richard III. Richard Gloucester (1.2.39–42; Q1597, A4b)

Vnmanerd dog, stand thou when I command,

Aduance thy halbert higher than my brest,

Or by Saint Paul Ile strike thee to my foote,

And spurne vpon thee begger for thy boldnes.

Notice how Shakespeare even retrieves the word following the vide to complete the thought. Not many lines later, the sense of cheer and sun that we see printed and marked in Baret is echoed.

S10. The Sunne cheereth and putteth away the sadnesse, or heauinesse of mans mind.

• Richard III. Richard Gloucester (1.2.127–30; Q1597, Bb–B2)

These eies could neuer indure sweet beauties wrack,

You should not blemish them if I stood by:

As all the world is cheered by the sonne,

So I by that, it is my day, my life.

A combination that seems more unusual, at least to the modern ear, is the pairing of hate with dissembling. In Shakespeare, we find them paired only in Richard III. Baret aligns the terms in the following sentence, marked by our annotator’s slash:

G609. / ¶ Grudge, or hatred with dissembling of countenance
