For he would answer with his life, his judgment that Lear's youngest daughter did not love him least, nor were those empty-hearted whose low sound gave no token of hollowness.
《李尔王》,莎士比亚故事集
nor后的句子应该是省略了主语she吧, those empty-hearted应该指的是那些负心的人,nor were (she) those empty-hearted...
可如果主语是前面的she,为什么谓语动词用were而不是was,还是说省略了以后为了符合后面的those empty-hearted?
