The name is that of the equivalent character in Lodge's Rosalynde. In two lines (iv, 3; v, 4) ‘Phebe' appears to be a monosyllable, to be regarded as an affectionato abbreviation.

-about which varying legends exist, all to the effect that after a life of several centuries it died, and was regenerated, or followed by a successor springing from its body or nest. It was supposed to live in Arabia, hence 'Arabian bird' (Ant.

In The Ph. and the Turtle (q.v.) the ph. is fem. (as in Hen. VIII), and the dove masc. (1. 31).

Phoenix and the Turtle, The. A poem bearing this name, and attributed to Sh., appeared, with others, as a kind of appendix to a volume of verse by Robert Chester, entitled Love's Martyr or Rosalin's Complaint, etc., publd. 1601.

Recent criticism assigns the poem with much con. fidence to Sh. (Dowden dissents). 'In dark and noble verse it describes a spiritual marriage, suddenly ended by death. It is too strange to be the fruit of a human sorrow. It is the work of a great mind trying to express in unusual symbols a thought too subtle and too intense to be expressed in any other way.' (J. Masefield, W. Sh. p. 249.)

[Phoenix Theatre.] See COCKPIT, THE.

Photinus. An attendant of Cleopatra's, thus referred to by Enobarbus, speaking to Cl.: 'Tis said in Rome, That Photinus an eunuch and your maids Manage this war' Ant. Cl. iii, 7).

This is based on Plut. p. 206, where Octavius is said to have declared that Photinus, and others, 'were

those that ruled all the affairs of Antonius' empire.' In the original Gk. the name is Pothinus, which is also that of an eunuch who was put to death by Jul. Caes, and who is referred to in Plut. pp. 85-6. The name 'Photinus' where it occurs in Beaumont and Fletcher's False One is accentuated on the pen. ultimate.

Phrygia. Country of Asia Minor, of different extent at different times. 'Phrygian' was commonly used by the Latin poets in the sense of 'Trojan,' since at one time the Troad (in Mysia) belonged to Phrygia.

'Lord Pandarus of Phr.' (T. Nt. iii, 1); the Greek princes 'from the Athenian bay Put forth toward Phr.' (Tr. Cr. Prol.); 'his smiling becomes him [Troilus] better than any man in all Phr.' (ib. i, 2).

Phrygian, adj. Hector's 'Phr. steed' (Tr. Cr. iv, 5); 'every Phr. stone of Troy' (ib. ib.); 'our Phr. plains' (ib. v, 11); used at random by Pistol: 'base Phr. Turk' (M.W.W. i, 3); 'Phr. shepherds' (Lucr. 1502).

Physician. D.P. Lear. iv, 4] ('Doctor,' Qq; 'Gentleman,' Ff) prescribes simples to procure repose for the King. iv, 7] watches the reawakening of Lear, and advises that his mind should be kept at rest.

Pigmy. See PYGMIES.

Pigrogromitus. 'Thou wast in very gracious fooling last night, when thou spok'st of P., of the Vapians passing the Equinoctial of Queubus' (T. Nt. ii, 3).

These proper names, quoted by Aguecheek as having been used by Feste, have not been identified as distortions of any known equivalents. A Rabe. laisian flavour has been discerned in the passage by some commentators. Cf. A. C. Swinburne, A Study of Shakespeare (1880), p. 155. Furness suggests a possible perversion of 'Tetragrammaton.'

Pilate, Pontius. Roman procurator of Judaea, by whom Christ was tried and condemned. Twice mentioned in Sh. in allusion to his washing his hands before the people to assert his innocence of Christ s death (Matt. xxvii, 24).

'Some of you, with P., wash your hands' (Rich. II, iv, 1); 'How fain, like P., would I wash my hands Of this murther' (Rich. III, i, 4).

E. as 'a mountebank, a threadbare juggler living dead man.'

Pindarus. An enfranchised slave of Cassius, whom C. 'reserved ever for such a pinch,' viz. the slaying of his master when ordered to do so. He accordingly struck off the head of Cassius at Philippi, when C. thought the day was lost, and was never seen more' (Plut. pp. 143, 171). Cf. Dion Cass. xlvii, 46; Appian, Bel. Civ. iv, 113; Val.

Its

Pisa. City of Italy, on the Arno. university was founded c. 1343. P., 'renowned for grave citizens' (cf. Tam. Sh. iv, 2), is referred to as less eminent for learning than Padua, ib. i, 1 (3). Mtd., ib. ii, 1 (2); iii, 1; iv, 2 (3), 4, 5; v, 1 (2).

Pisanio. D.P. Cymb. 'Servant to Posthumus' (Rowe). i, 2] is placed at Imogen's command when his master is exiled; is sent to see Post. embark. i, 4] describes P.'s departure. i, 6] is given a box by the Queen (which she avers to contain a potent medicine) and is told that his merits will be rewarded; (sol.) when he proves untrue to his lord he will choke himself.' i, 7] announces Iachimo. ii, 3] is bidden to search for Imogen's bracelet. iii, 2] reads, with horror and amazement, a letter from Post. accusing Im. of faithlessness and ordering him to kill her; hands another letter to Im. bidding her set out for Milford; tells her she had 'best consider.' iii, 4] reveals Post.'s command to Im.; since its receipt he has not 'slept one wink'; advises her to attach herself to the train of the Roman ambassador and leave Britain; furnishes her with a suitable disguise; gives her the Queen's 'box of drugs.' iii, 5] (at the Court) in reply to Cloten's threatening inquiries concerning Im., hands him a deceptive letter; avers his willingness to serve Cl. and brings him a suit of Posthumus' clothes; (sol.) trusts that Cl.'s efforts will be fruitless.

(v, 1) is believed by Post. to have too compliantly killed Im. v, 5] on Post.'s striking 'Fidele,' springs to aid her, and reveals her identity; he exculpates himself when accused of having tried to poison her; explains how Cloten came to be attired in Posthumus' clothes when slain.

'Pisanio unites the cunning of the serpent with the harmlessness of the dove. His singular position is throughout that he is truest where he is most untrue.

To serve his master with true obedience is more to him than life; yet he cannot kill the guiltless. . . By dissimulation he maintains his trust as an instru ment for just action.' (Gervinus, Sh. Comm. (1875), pp. 673-4.)

Piston, a bully and buffoon, appears in Solimon and Perseda (1599). Piston has but little resem. blance to Pistol: he does not rant, but indulges in comical perversions such as 'O extempore, o flores !' (B2). See BASILISCO. 'We find in the Addl. Charters in the Brit. Mus., Nos. 1021, 1022, that Wm. Pistail and R. Bardolf were among Canoniers serving in Normandy, Ao. 1435' (Knight).

D.P. Hen.

tells Ford that Fal. is in love with his wife. ii, 2] is refused a loan by Fal., and exclaims: 'Why, then the world's mine oyster, Which I with sword will open'; follows Quickly on her errand to Mrs Page. v, 5] takes part in the baiting of Fal. in Windsor forest.

The part allotted to P. in v, 5, seems out of keeping with his character. In Q (1602) he does not appear in this scene. (See QUICKLY.)

Pittie-ward. M.W.W. iii, 1, F,; perh. a thoroughfare in Windsor; cf. 'Pyttey Gate' in Bristol (Lee, ed.).

Placentio. An invited guest; Rom. J. i, 2. Plantagenet. A surname, or rather nickname, applied to the descendants of Geoffrey, E. of Anjou, and especially to the kings of England from Henry II to Rich. III.

While the derivation of the name-planta genista (broom)-is clear, the reason for its

adoption is doubtful. The title was not adopted by the family until c. 1450.

'Geffrey's son, Arthur P.' (John, i, 1); Philip Faulconbridge accepted as a P., ib. i, 1 (2). Percy and P. contrasted, 1 Hen. IV, i, 1. Henry V speaks of himself as Henry P., Hen. V, v, 2.

The story of his complicity in the conspiracy of 1399 is now not regarded as resting on trustworthy evidence.

D.P. Rich. II. 'Duke of Aumerle.' i, 3] officiates as High Constable at Coventry; bids farewell to Bol. and desires to hear from him. i, 4] assures Richard that he wishes Bol.'s banishment longer. ii, 1] p.m. (ii, 3) Bol. speaks of him as 'my noble cousin.' iii, 1] (with the King at Gaunt's death-bed) p.m. iii, 2] lands in Wales with Richard; considers Richard 'too remiss'; gives the King a few words of comfort. iii, 3] (at Flint Castle) deprecates armed resistance. iv, 1] Bagot and Fitzwater accuse him of hav ing been accessory to Gloucester's death; he challenges them both and also Norfolk, who, he then hears, is dead (Hol. iii, 512);
