Tofail in the difpofing of those chances I My fallad days! When I was green in judgment: cold in blood, To fay, as I faid then!] This puzzles Mr. Theobald. He fays, Cleopatra may speak very naturally here with contempt of her judgment at that period: but how truly with regard to the coldness of her blood, may admit fome question. And then employs his learning to prove, that at this cold feafon of her blood, the had feen twenty good years. Shakespeare's best juftification, is restoring his own fenfe, which is done merely by a different pointing: My fallad days; When I was green in judgment. Cold in blood! To fay as I faid then. Cold in blood is an upbraiding expoftulation to her maid. Thofe, fays fhe, were my fallad days, when I was green in judgment; but your blood is as cold as my judgment, if you have the fame opinion of things now as I had then. WARBURTON. I would prefer ballad days. What are fallad days? Does fallad give any particular or appropriate idea of youth? or do the editors read fallad, because Cleopatra is here speaking of her green judgment? Green, in this place, however, has not the Imallest reference to colour, it certainly means unripe; and do we fay of fallad that it is unripe? The true reading, I fhould fuppofe, is ballad days, i. e. Days when he was little given to thought or reflection.

It is not the relative to merit, but to defect::-one of those defects in Coriolanus, which Aufidius had enumerated a little before. Whatever defect he may have (fays Aufidius), he has a merit to countervail it. A. B. And And the strong lance of juftice hurtlefs breaks : Let the great gods, Lear, A. 4, S. 6.
