Notes.
ON TWO PASSAGES IN "ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL."
Among the few passages in Shakspeare upon which little light has been
thrown, after all that has been written about them, are the following in
Act. IV. Sc. 2. of _All's Well that Ends Well_, where Bertram is persuading
Diana to yield to his desires:
"_Bert._ I pr'ythee, do not strive against my vows:
I was compell'd to her; but I love thee
By love's own sweet constraint, and will for ever
Do thee all rights of service.
_Dia._ Ay, so you serve us,
Till we serve
