  Ham.
I, thou poore Ghost, while memory holds a seate
In this distracted Globe: Remember thee?
Yea, from the TABLE of my Memory,
Ile wipe away all triuiall fond Records,

That youth and obseruation coppied there;
And thy Commandment all alone shall liue
Within the Booke and Volume of my Braine,
Vnmixt with baser matter; YES YES, by Heauen:
Oh most pernicious woman!
Oh Villaine, Villaine, smiling damned Villaine!
My TABLEs, my TABLEs; meet it is I set it downe,
That one may smile, and smile and be a Villaine;
At least I'm sure it may be so in Denmarke;
So Vnckle there you are: now to my word;
It is; Adue, Adue, Remember me: I haue sworn't.

Geoffrey Chaucer is considered "the outstanding English poet
   before Shakespeare and 'the first finder of our language'.
  In The Equatorie of the Planetis, a supplement to his 1391
_Treatise on the Astrolabe_, Chaucer included 6 passages
 written in cipher. The cipher system consists of a substitution
 alphabet of symbols. The solution to the cryptogram is:
 
    "This TABLE servith for to entre in to the TABLE
        of equacion of the mone on either side."

LORENZO: Wilt thou show
the whole wealth of thy wit in an instant? I pray
thee, understand a plain man in his plain meaning:
go to thy fellows; bid them cover the TABLE, serve
in the meat, and we will come in to dinner.
 

LAUNCELOT: For the TABLE, sir, it shall be served in;
 for the meat, sir, it shall be covered; for your coming
 in to dinner, sir, why, let it be as humours and
 conceits shall govern.

convocation of politic worms are e'en at him. Your

          Metamorphoses By Ovid
Translated by Sir Samuel Garth, John Dryden, et al
 
The Peasants of Lycia transform'd to Frogs
 
With thirst the Goddess languishing, no more
Her empty'd breast would yield its milky store;
When, from below, the smiling valley show'd
A silver lake that in its bottom flow'd:
A sort of CLOWNS were reaping, near the bank,
The BENDING OSIER, and the bullrush dank;
The cresse, and water-lilly, fragrant weed,
Whose juicy stalk the liquid fountains feed.
The Goddess came, and kneeling on the brink,
STOOP'd at the fresh repast, prepar'd to drink.

<<Two tracts written in 1584, during Leicester's lifetime, Leicester's
Commonwealth and A Letter of Estate, exposed Leicester's many crimes
and faults, including his ambition for the crown. In 1585, Leicester's
Commonwealth was published in France, translated by the original author
and supplemented with additional material. These publications were
followed, after Leicester's death in 1588, by another tract, News From
Heaven And Hell (1588), and a long poem, Leicester's Ghost (1603).
The style of all five works is similar, and it is likely they were all
of
Oxford's authorship, particularly when they are compared with charges
Oxford is alleged to have made against Leicester in the late 1570s.:
 
5. That he boasted of his greatness in alliance, wealth, credit with
   the Queen, etc., affirming further that he was able to make the
   proudest subject to sweat that would oppose himself against him,
    and that he made the Duke of Norfolk to STOOP,
    notwithstanding all his bragging.>>

Gardener:  Go, bind thou up yon dangling apricocks,
    Which, like unruly children, make their sire
    STOOP with oppression of their prodigal weight:
    Give some supportance to the bending twigs.
    Go thou, and like an executioner,
    Cut off the heads of too fast growing sprays,
    That look too lofty in our COMMONWEALTH:
    All must be even in our government.
    You thus employ'd, I will go root away
    The noisome WEEDS, which without profit suck
    The soil's fertility from wholesome flowers.

 Lady Clara VERE de VERE,
*OF ME YOU SHALL NOT WIN RENOWN*
 You thought to break a country heart
 For pastime, ere you went to town.
 At me you smiled, but unbeguiled
 I saw the snare, and I retired;
 The daughter of a hundred earls,
 You are not one to be desired.
 
 Lady Clara VERE de VERE,
 
I KNOW YOU PROUD TO BEAR YOUR NAME,
 
 Your pride is yet no mate for mine,
 Too proud to care from whence I came.
 
 Lady Clara VERE de VERE,
 Some meeker pupil you must find,
 For, were you queen of all that is,
 I could not STOOP to such a mind.
 You sought to prove how I could love,
 And my disdain is my reply.
 THE LION ON YOUR OLD STONE GATES
 Is not more cold to you than I.

RUMOUR:  But what mean I
 To speak so true at first? my office is
 To noise abroad that Harry Monmouth fell
 Under the wrath of noble Hotspur's sword,
 And that the king before the Douglas' rage
 STOOP'd his anointed head as low as death.
 This have I RUMOUR'd through the peasant towns
 Between that royal field of Shrewsbury
 And this worm-eaten hold of ragged stone,
 Where Hotspur's father, old Northumberland,
 Lies crafty-sick: the posts come tiring on,
 And not a man of them brings other news
 Than they have learn'd of me: from RUMOUR's tongues
 They bring smooth comforts false, worse than true wrongs.

One of those, my lord. A plagiarist. A soapy sneak masquerading as a
literateur. It's perfectly obvious that with the most inherent baseness
he has cribbed some of my bestselling books, really gorgeous stuff, a
perfect gem, the love passages in which are beneath suspicion. The
Beaufoy books of love and great possessions with which your lordship is

rhododendrons on Howth head in the grey tweed suit and his straw hat the
day I got him to propose to me YES first I gave him the bit of seedcake
out of my mouth and it was leapyear like now YES 16 years ago my God
after that long kiss I near lost my breath YES he said I was a flower of
the mountain YES so we are flowers all a womans body YES that was one
true thing he said in his life and the sun shines for you today YES that
was why I liked him because I saw he understood or felt what a woman is
and I knew I could always get round him and I gave him all the pleasure
I could leading him on till he asked me to say YES and I wouldnt answer
first only looked out over the sea and the sky I was thinking of so many
things he didnt know of Mulvey and Mr Stanhope and Hester and father and
old captain Groves and the sailors playing all birds fly and I say STOOP
and washing up dishes they called it on the pier and the sentry in front
of the governors house with the thing round his white helmet poor devil
half roasted and the Spanish girls laughing in their shawls and their
tall combs and the auctions in the morning the Greeks and the jews and
the Arabs and the devil knows who else from all the ends of Europe and
Duke street and the fowl market all clucking outside Larby Sharons and
the poor donkeys slipping half asleep and the vague fellows in the
cloaks asleep in the shade on the steps and the big wheels of the carts
of the bulls and the old castle thousands of years old YES and those
handsome Moors all in white and turbans like kings asking you to sit
down in their little bit of a shop and Ronda with the old windows of the
posadas glancing eYES a lattice hid for her lover to kiss the iron and
the WINEshops half open at night and the castanets and the night we
missed the boat at Algeciras the watchman going about serene with his
lamp and O that awful deepdown torrent O and the sea the sea crimson
sometimes like fire and the glorious sunsets and the figtrees in the
Alameda gardens YES and all the queer little streets and pink and blue
and yellow houses and the rosegardens and the jessamine and geraniums
and cactuses and Gibraltar as a girl where I was a Flower of the
mountain YES when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls
used or shall I wear a red YES and how he kissed me under the Moorish
wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with
my eYES to ask again YES and then he asked me would I YES to say YES my
mountain flower and first I put my arms around him YES and drew him
down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume YES and
 his heart was going like mad and YES I said YES I will YES.

                    _Portrait of the Artist_
 
 He thought of it with deep awe; a terrible and strange sin: it
thrilled him to think of it in the silence when the pens scraped
lightly. But to drink the altar WINE out of the press and be found out
by the smell was a sin too: but it was not terrible and strange. It only
made you feel a little sickish on account of the smell of the WINE.
Because on the day when he had made his first holy communion
 in the chapel he had shut his eyes and opened his mouth and
 put out his tongue a little: and when the rector had STOOPed
 down to give him the holy communion he had smelt a faint winy
smell off the rector's breath after the WINE of the mass.
 The word was beautiful: WINE. It made you think of dark purple
 because the grapes were dark purple that grew in Greece
 outside houses like white temples. But the faint smell of the rector's
 breath had made him feel a sick feeling on the morning of his first
 communion. The day of your first communion was the happiest day
 of your life. And once a lot of generals had asked Napoleon what
 was the happiest day of his life. They thought he would say the day he
 won some great battle or the day he was made an emperor. But he said:
 
-- Gentlemen, the happiest day of my life was the day
           on which I made my first holy communion.
----------------------------------------------------------------
                       Portrait of the Artist
 
-- Well now, Ennis, I declare you have a head and so has my stick!
Do you mean to say that you are not able to tell me what a surd is?
 
The blundering answer stirred the embers of his contempt of his fellows.
Towards others he felt neither shame nor fear. On Sunday mornings as he
passed the church door he glanced coldly at the worshippers who stood
bareheaded, four deep, outside the church, morally present at the mass
which they could neither see nor hear. Their dull piety and the sickly
smell of the cheap hair-oil with which they had anointed their heads
repelled him from the altar they prayed at. He STOOPed
 to the evil of hypocrisy with others, sceptical of
 their innocence which he could cajole so easily.
