To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Shakespeare's A. Y, Z. 3. 3. 31 : "To have honey a sauce to sugar." 53 24. Vivity etc. Sidney apparently quoted from memory (see the Variants). I have restored the true reading of Cicero, Catiline i. 2: " He lives. Lives? ay, he comes even into the senate," etc. 53 30. Too much choler. I suspect that Sidney here intends a pun upon choler and color, Shakespeare frequently plays tricks with the word choler. If my supposition is correct, Sidney uses color in the sense of figure of speech, rhetoric...al ornament, artifice, as in Chaucer, Prologue of the Franklin^ s Tale : Colours ne knowe I non, withouten drede, But swiche colours as growen in the mede, Or elles swiche as men dye with or peynte. Colours of rethoryke been to queynte. If this surmise is correct, we must understand: "When it were too highly rhetorical to simulate anger." 53 31. Similiter cadences, A partial Anglicization of Quintilian's cadentia similiter (9. 4. 42), a translation of the Greek rhetorical term 128 NOTES, 6fMi6wTttraf which is allied to, and frequently identical with, the simi- liter desinentia or A^iorcAcvro, which we call 'rime.' An example occurs in Cicero, Quintius 23.
