In SJ's edition of Shakespeare, there is a similar reference to the Life of Williams in a comment on the quoted Merry Wives passage (Yale vol. 7, p.333). SJ: "This word I have never seen anywhere except in Dr. Hacket's life of Archbishop Williams, where a "frampul" man signifies a pevish, troublesome fellow." In a footnote, the Yale editors state: "...attributed to Hacket's Life of Williams but actually an invention on SJ's part." The Yale statement is incorrect.]

- Life of Williams: Scrinia reserata a memorial offer'd to the great deservings of John Williams, D. D., who some time held the places of Ld Keeper of the Great Seal of England, Ld Bishop of Lincoln, and Ld Archbishop of York : containing a series of the most remarkable occurences and transactions of his life, in relation both to church and state, written by John Hacket, late Lord Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, 1693, [London] In the Savoy : Printed by Edw. Jones for Samuel Lowndes over against Exeter-Exchange in the Strand; frampold (frampul) [BKG Note: The Dict. etymology for frampold states: "This word is written by Dr. Hacket frampul. I know not its original." The OED agrees that the origin of the word is uncertain. The Dict. etymology is followed by quotes from the Merry Wives of Windsor and the Life of Williams.]
