Note 9 — CAP. XC.
Reading edition
1: This word is very puzzling. It seems to me that it probably means wheel work, from Lat. orbis, a circle; but Rd. Braithwaite, in his Arcadian Princesse, says: "In the lowest border of the garden, I might see a curious orbell, all of touch, wherein the Syracusan tyrants were no lesse artfully portrayed, than their severall cruelties to life displayed."
2: As if they had been alive.
3: Misprint for Wells.
4: Conduit.
5: Wells.
6: Made.
7: Deceit.
8: Ill intent, evil mind.
9: Wells.
