Rh L. 43.

[Clown sings 'Come away, death.']

L. 67.

'Light airs' in line 5 means 'vain fiddling jigs'—i.e., lively instrumental music. Lines 20–22 and 43 are worth remembering for many reasons.

The next and last passage requires no remark, except that 'organ pipe of frailty' means simply the voice of the dying king.

King John $5⁄7, 10$. Death of K, John.
