1 78 Notes [Act III ward." Halliwell-Phillipps thinks it means " towards the Petty or Little Park," as distinguished from the Park. 14. Costard. Properly a kind of apple (whence costermonger, or costard-monger^ \ then, in cant language, the head, as being round like an apple. Cf. L. L. L. iii. i. 71, Lear, iv. 6. 247, etc. 16. To shallow rivers, etc. This is from a poem which "William Jaggard, when he brought out The Passionate Pilgrim in 1599, included as one of Shakespeare's productions; but in 1600 it was attributed to its real author, Christopher Marlowe, in the collection of poems entitled England^ s Helicon. Jaggard was perhaps misled by the quotation from the poem here. If so, it tends to prove that the play was written before the publication of The Passionate Pil- grim (Stokes). The poem is familiar, but some readers may be glad to see it reprinted here : — The Passionate Shepherd to his Love Come live with me and be my love, And we will all the pleasures prove That hills and valleys, dale and field, And all the craggy mountains yield. There will we sit upon the rocks, And see the shepherds feed their flocks, By shallow rivers, by whose falls Melodious birds sing madrigals. There will I make thee beds of roses. With a thousand fragrant posies, A cap of flowers, and a kirtle Embroider'd all with leaves of myrtle; A gown made of the finest wool. Which from our pretty lambs we pull : Fair lined slippers for the cold. With buckles of the purest gold ; A belt of straw, and ivy buds. With coral clasps and amber studs : And if these pleasures may thee move, Come live with me, and be my love.
