Seruanted Abbott (§ 294): A participle formed from an adjective means ‘made (the adjective’), and derived from a noun means ‘endowed (with the noun’). [Abbott explains ‘servanted’ here as made subservient, and thus takes servant as the adjectival form of the word, as ‘stranger’ is used in Lear, I, i, 207, ‘stranger'd with our curse,’ i. e., made a stranger by our curse.—Numerous other examples of this construction are given.—Ed.]

Though I owe My Reuenge properly, etc. Johnson: Though I have a peculiar right in revenge, in the power of forgiveness the Volcians are conjoined. [For this use of ‘remission’ in the sense of pardon compare, ‘My penance is to call Lucetta back And ask remission for my folly past,’ Two Gentlemen, I, i, 65.]
