He was the third son of Sir Aubrey de Vere and Mary Spring Rice,
sister of the first Lord Monteagle. Aubrey Vere, second son
of the 16th Earl of Oxford, was his direct ancestor.

Aubrey de Vere early showed his rare poetic temperament. His
young
imagination was strongly influenced by his friendship with the
astronomer, Sir William Rowan Hamilton, through whom he came to
a knowledge and reverent admiration for Wordsworth & Coleridge.
In 1832 he entered Trinity College, Dublin, where he devoted
himself to the study of metaphysics, reading Kant & Coleridge.

Later he visited Oxford, Cambridge, and Rome,
and came under the potent influence of Newman.
and came under the potent influence of Newman.
He also visited the Lake Country of England, and he afterwards spoke
of the days under Wordsworth's roof as the greatest honour of his
life. His veneration for Wordsworth was singularly shown in after
life, when he never omitted a yearly pilgrimage to the grave
of that poet until advanced age made the journey impossible.
of the days under Wordsworth's roof as the greatest honour of his
life. His veneration for Wordsworth was singularly shown in after
life, when he never omitted a yearly pilgrimage to the grave
of that poet until advanced age made the journey impossible.
As a critic, Aubrey de Vere shows discriminating power in the
two
volumes of "Essays" in which he writes of Sir Henry Taylor, Keats,
Landor, and others, and of the power and passion of Wordsworth.
He would have been satisfied to be known solely as the
interpreter of Wordsworth, whom he considered the greatest
poet after Milton. His charm of description is shown
in two early volumes of "Sketches of Greece and Turkey".

In a volume of "Recollections" (London, 1897) may be found
reminiscences of many notable people and events. The personality
of Aubrey de Vere was singularly charming. He was of tall & slender
physique, thoughtful and grave in character, of exceeding dignity
and grace of manner, and retained his vigorous mental powers
to a great age. He was undoubtedly one of the most profoundly
intellectual poets of his time. As he never married, the name
of de Vere at his death became extinct for the second time,
and has been assumed by his nephew.>>

<<Stratford began to take shape in 1832 when
Thomas Mercer Jones, a Canada Company director,
gave a picture of William Shakespeare to William SARGINT,
the owner of the Shakespeare Hotel. A stone marks the site
of this hotel, near 70 Ontario Street. Jones gave the village
the name of Stratford and the creek, which had been
known as Little Thames, was renamed the Avon River.

In 1834 surveyor John MacDonald created the town plan;
he placed the geographic centre of town at the point where
four townships met, not far from today's Wade's Flower Shop.
He then created four main roads radiating from the centre.
Three of these roads were named for the Great Lakes
to which they lead, Huron, Erie and Ontario.

In 1933 a general strike, which started with furniture
workers
and chicken pluckers, became so unruly that the army,
along with its tanks, was called in to put a stop to the strike.
The strike was a major event in Canadian industrial history and
is the subject of playwright James Reaney's play Kingwhistle!>>

"Putting it Together" (from Sunday in the Park with George -
1984).
Based on the famous George SEURAT pointillistic painting "A Sunday
Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte", the fictitious story line
concerns George, a painter, who thinks he has to choose between his art
and his lover, Dot, because he feels he cannot balance both in his life.
In the second act George's great-grandson (also an artist)
comes back to the island with similar problems.

"Comedy Tonight" (from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the
Forum
-1962) - Based on the plays of the Greek playwright PLAUTUS, the show
portrays the farcical story of a young hero, named HERO, who has fallen
in love with a COURTESAN. He enlists his conniving slave, Pseudolos,
to get the girl for him in exchange for his freedom. "Comedy Tonight"
is the opening number, performed in the classical manner of a Greek
chorus commenting on the action that is about to ensue, and
is sung by Prologus (who becomes Pseudolos) and the Proteans.

Right on top of the cliff, lost in M. Lenepveu's copper ceiling,
figures grinned and grimaced, laughed and jeered at MM. Richard
and Moncharmin's distress. And yet these figures were usually
VERy serious. Their names were Isis, Amphitrite, Hebe,
Pandora, Psyche, Thetis, Pomona, Daphne, Clytie, Galatea
and ARETHUSA. Yes, ARETHUSA herself and Pandora, whom
we all know by her box, looked down upon the two new managers

and from there stared silently at Box Five on the grand TIER.

in Portugal (near whose top there was said to be a lake in which the
wrecks of ships floated up to the surface); and that still more
wonderful story of the [A]RETHUS[A] fountain near Syracuse

<<In William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, the Queen of
the
Fairies is Titania, whose name represents the pre-Olympian god-race of
the Titans. In particular, she is the Moon Goddess Diana. Their king,
Oberon, however, had an historical base, being inspired by an ancestor
of Shakespeare's colleague Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford.
He was a founding member of Elizabeth Tudor's 16th-century Court
Poetry & Magic Syndicate - along with Francis Bacon, John Dee,
Edmund Spenser & others of the Rosicrucian "underground stream."

Edward de Vere was, at that time, Lord High Chancellor of England
- as had been many generations of his forebears, including Albrey,
the 12th-century Prince of Anjou & Guisnes, whose titular name,
Albe-Righ, meant Elf King. Despite their loyalty to Elizabeth,
the Syndicate knew that the House of Tudor had no prior right
to the English throne, having simply taken it, by might
of the sword, from the preceding House of Plantagenet.

the Syndicate knew that the House of Tudor had no prior right

That apart, the Plantagenets themselves were a junior branch of
the
House of Anjou, whose senior branch was the House of Vere. Indeed,
in 1861, the noted royal historian Baron Thomas Babington Macaulay
described the Veres as "the longest and most illustrious line of
nobles that England has ever seen". Their ancestry was jointly
Pictish & Merovingian, descending from the ancient Grail
House of Scythia. Here was a true kingly line of the Elven
Race, and it was for this reason that Oberon (a variant of
Aubrey/Albrey, the historical Elf King) became Shakespeare's
King of the Fairies. Such was the translatory nature of
all Rosicrucian symbology, whether portrayed in stories,
artwork, watermarks or the Tarot.

Some time earlier, in 1408, Edward de Vere's ancestor, Richard
(Lord
Chamberlain & 11th Earl of Oxford), had been invested as a Knight of
the Garter by King Henry IV at Windsor Castle. Also invested at the
same time was King Sigismund of Hungary, who had revived the
ancient Egyptian Order of the Dragon - within which Richard
de Vere held the hereditary distinction of Lord Draconis.

One way or another, the nursery tales which emanated from
the
"underground stream" were stories of lost brides & usurped kingship
- based upon the subjugation of the Grail Bloodline
by the Church of Rome and, in later times,
by the sectarian Puritans of the Protestant movement.>>

<<The Sicambrians, ancestors of the Franks, were known as the
"PEOPLE
OF THE BEAR" for their worship of the BEAR-goddess [A]RDUIN[A]. The word
"[A]RCADI[A]" comes from Arkas, patron god of that area of Greece, the
son of the nymph Callisto, sister of the huntress Artemis. Callisto's
constellation is also known to many as URSA MAJOR, the Great BEAR. The
name "Arthur" comes from the Celtic arth, related to "Ursus" -- namely,
"BEAR." In legend, the Merovingians were said to be descended from
the Trojans, and Homer reports that Troy was founded by a colony
of Arcadians. The "Prieure documents" claim that the Arcadians were
descended from BENjamites driven out of Palestine by their fellow
Israelites for idolatry. "[A]RCADI[A]" was also known as the source of
the River ALPHaeus, the "underground stream" which figures prominently
in Coleridge's poetry and in esoteric literature. The Merovingians
were "sacred kings" who reigned but did not rule, leaving the secular
governing function to chancellors known as the Mayors of the Palace.
It was one of these Mayors, Pepin the Fat, who founded the dynasty
that came to supplant them -- the Carolingians.>>

[[[notes: Prefixed to verbs of Anglo-Saxon origin, /A/ has sometimes
a negative, sometimes an intensative power.
Before a noun it is often a corruption of the Saxon /on/
In Elizabethan use there is clear use with adjectival deployment, by The
Author
(See Macbeth, iii. 5, or as in Macbeth, iii. 4 which features
"a-one")]]]
There was a common proverb, "he does not know great A from a bull's foot,"
which may remain Art, one of those allusions not susceptible to any literary
analysis, since its manger is embedded in another landscape entirely. There
is another proverb, "A.B. from a battledore", [Ray], and another from Taylor
the water-poet on Coryat, addressed "To the gentleem readers that understand
A.B. from a battledore".
I know not an A from the wynd-mylne,
Ne A.B. from a bule-foot, I trowe, ne thiself nother.
/MS. Digby 41, f. 5.
But as to A-A, that is another story, and in passing it is explained by
Junius vox dolentium. Hampole tells us that a male child utters the sound
a-a when it is born, and a female e-e, being respective of the initials of
their ancestors Adam and Eve.
See the Archaeologia, xix. 322
A couplet on the joys of heaven, in MS Coll. S. Joh. Oxon. 57, is called
signum a-a.
