Subject:        Garbles in Shakespeare

I'd like to identify prevailing editorial practice when it comes to
garbles in original texts.  Deciding to be a good boy, I searched the
SHAKSPER archives (for "garble") but found very little discussion of
this topic, and only a mention of a possible garble in MV:
http://www.shaksper.net/archives/1995/0350.html (msg #1).  (Errors or
garbles in transcribed texts were noted more often.)

Can a few instances of garbles in Sh. and other Tudor texts be pointed
out to me so that I can see how editors dealt with them?

Thanks in advance,
Al Magary
