p. 32 _Ay and No Man._ cf. Prologue to _The False Count_ (Vol. III,
p. 100): 'By Yea and Nay'; and note on that passage (p. 480).
_False Count_ note:
_By Yea and Nay._ 'Yea and Nay' was often derisively applied to
the Puritans, and hence to their lineal descendants the Whigs, in
allusion to the Scriptural injunction, _S. Matthew_ v, 33-7, which
they feigned exactly to follow. Timothy Thin-beard, a rascally
Puritan, in Heywood's _If you Know Not Me, You Know Nobody_, Part II
(4to, 1606), is continually asseverating 'By yea and nay', cf.
Fletcher's _Monsieur Thomas_, Act II, iii, where Thomas says:--
Do not ye see me alter'd? 'Yea and Nay,' gentlemen;
A much-converted man.
