_____ *SUPER* : *OVER* (Latin)

_ULYSSES_

He has hidden his own name, a fair name, William, in the plays, a
SUPER HERE, a clown there, as a *PAINTer* of old Italy set his face
in a DARK CORNER of his canvas. He has REVEalED it in the sonnets
where there is Will in OVER(pl)US. Like John o'Gaunt his name is
DEAR to him, as DEAR as the coat and crest he toadied for, on a
*BEND sable* a spear or steeled argent, *honorificabilitudinitatibus*
dearer than his glory of greatest shakescene in the country.
What's in a name? That is what we ask ourselves in childhood
when we write the name that we are told is ours.

<<In 1947 Nabokov published a bitterly satirical novel about
totalitarianism called *BEND SINISTER* . In Chapter Seven he
took the opportunity (which has puzzled scholars ever since)
to make the following, apparently ironical,
comments about the Stratfordian attribution:

A fluted GLASS with a blue-veined violet & a jug of hot punch
stand on Ember's bedtable. The buff wall directly above his
bed (he has a bad cold) bears a sequence of three engravings.

Venus and Adonis Stanza 111-2

But if thou needs wilt hunt, be RULED by me;
Uncouple at the timorous flying HARE,
Or at the fox which lives by subtlety,
Or at the *ROE* which no encounter dare:
Pursue these fearful creatures o'er the downs,
And on thy well-breath'd horse keep with thy HOUNDS.
And when thou hast on foot the purblind HARE,
Mark the poor wretch, to OVERshoot his troubles
How he outruns the wind and with what care
He cranks and crosses with a thousand doubles:
The many MUSETS through the which he goes
*Are like a labyrinth to amaze his foes*

Dante Alighieri (1265-1321).

<<The *SPIRITS* wonder at seeing the shadow cast by the body
of Dante on the flame as he passes it. This moves one of them
to address him. It proves to be Guido Guinicelli, the Italian poet,
who points out to him the *SPIRIT* of Arnault *DANIel*, the
Provençal, with whom he also speaks. (Dante & Petrarch
place Arnault *DANIel* first among Provençal poets)

He thus bespake me: "What from thee I hear
*Is graved so DEEPly on my mind* , the waves
Of *LETHE shall not wash it off* ,
nor make a whit less lively.
But as now *THY OATH Has seal'd the TRUTH* ,
declare what cause impels That love,
which both thy looks and speech bewray."

"Those *DULCET* lays," I answer'd; "which, as
long As of our tongue the beauty does not fade,
Shall make us love the *VERY INK* that traced them."

"Brother!" he cried, and pointed at the shade
Before him, "there is one, whose mother speech
Doth owe to him a *fairer ORNAMENT* .
He in love ditties, and the tales of prose,
Without a rival stands; and lets *THE FOOLS*
Talk on, who think the songster of Limoges
O'ertops him. Rumour and the popular voice
They look to, *more than TRUTH* ; and so confirm
Opinion, ere by art or reason taught.>>

HOW SHAKESPEARE HAS BEEN MADE A LAWYER.
http://www.sourcetext.com/lawlibrary/devecmon/02.htm

<<The reasons given by Lord Campbell for the faith that was
in him, besides the legalisms in the plays, are as follows:

"Envy does merit as its shade pursue; and rivals whom he surpassed,
not only envied Shakespeare, but grossly libeled him. Of this we
have an example in 'An Epistle to the Gentlemen Students of the Two
Universities, by Thomas Nash,' prefixed to the first edition of Robert
Greene's Menaphon (which was subsequently called Greene's Arcadia),
according to the title page, published in 1589. The alleged
libel on Shakespeare is in the words following, viz.:

"'I will turn back to my first studies of delight, and talk a little
in friendship with a few of our trivial translators. It is a common
practice nowadays, amongst a sort of shifting companions that run
through *EVERy art* and thrive by none, to leave the trade of
*NOVERINT* whereto they were born, land busy themselves with
*the endeavors of art* , that could scarce Latinize their neck-verse
if they should have need; yet English Seneca, read by *CANDLE* light,
yields many good sentences, as blood is a beggar, and so forth;
and if you entreat him fair in a frosty morning, he will afford
you whole Hamlets; I should say whole handfuls of tragical speeches.
But, O grief! Tempus edax rerum'what is it that will last always'
*The sea exhaled by drops will in continuance be dry* ;
and Seneca, let blood, line by line and page by page,
at length must needs die to our stage.'"

"... they had on their left arm an armilla of *TINN* printed in some
workes, about four inches long; they could not gett it off. They wore
about their necks a great horn of an oxe in a string of bawdrie, which
when they came to an house for almes, they did wind; and they put the

"through EVERy art & thrive by none,
to leave the trade of *NOVERINT* " -- *Thomas NASH*
---------------------------------------------------------
This is the technical phraseology referred to by *Thomas NASH* in
his *Epistle to the Gentlemen Students of the two universities*
in the year 1589, when he is supposed to have denounced
the author of Hamlet as one of those who had

"left the trade of *NOVERINT* , whereto they were born,
for handfuls of tragical speeches"

that is, an attorney's clerk become a poet,
and penning a stanza when he should engross.

As You Like It was not brought out until shortly before the year
1600, so that *NASH's NOVERINT* could not have been suggested by it.
Possibly Shakespeare now introduced the "Be it known to all men,"
&c., in order to show his contempt for *NASH* 's sarcasm.

In Act. II. Sc. 1, there are illustrations which would present
themselves rather to the mind of one initiated in legal proceedings,
than of one who had been brought up as an apprentice to a "lover, or
an assistant to *a BUTCHER or a woolstapler* : for instance, when
it is said of the poor wounded deer, weeping in the stream:

"thou makest a testament
As worldlings do, giving thy sum of more
To that which hath too much

And again where the careless herd, jumping by him without
greeting him, are compared to "fat & greasy citizens," who
look upon that poor & broken bankrupt there, without pitying
his sufferings or attempting to relieve his necessities.

It may perhaps be said that such language might be used by any man
of observation. But in Act III, Sc. 1, a deep technical knowledge
of law is displayed, howsoever it may have been acquired.

The usurping Duke, Frederick, wishing all the real property of Oliver
to be seized, awards a writ of extent against him, in the language
which would be used by the Lord Chief Baron of the Court of Exchequer:

Duke Fred. Make an extent upon his house and lands an extendi
facias applying to house and lands, as a fieri facias would apply
to goods & chattels, or a capias ad satisfaciendum to the person.

<<Recordings in the Episcopal register at Worcester on the dates of
November 27 & 28, 1582, reveal that Shakespeare desired to marry a
young girl named Anne. There are two different documents regarding
this matter, and their contents have raised a debate over just
whom Shakespeare first intended to wed. Were there two Annes?
Was Shakespeare in love with one but in lust with the other? Was
Shakespeare ready to join in matrimony with the Anne of his dreams
only to have an attack of conscience and marry the Anne with whom
he had carnal relations? To discuss the controversy properly we
should look at the documents in question. The first entry in
the register is the following record of the issue of
a marriage license to one Wm Shakespeare:

Anno Domini 1582...Novembris...27 die eiusdem mensis.
Item eodem die supradicto emanavit Licentia inter
Wm Shaxpere et Annam WHATEley de Temple Grafton.

The next entry in the episcopal register records
the marriage bond granted to one Wm Shakespeare:

*Noverint universi per praesentes* nos Fulconem Sandells de Stratford
in comitatu Warwici agricolam et Johannem Rychardson ibidem agricolam,
teneri et firmiter obligari Ricardo Cosin generoso et Roberto Warmstry

in the diocese of Worcester, maiden, may lawfully solemnize matrimony
together, and in the same afterwards remain and continue like man
and wife according unto the laws in that behalf provided... >>

Sinclair Lewis (1885?1951). Babbitt. 1922.

Among the great lawyers whom he mentioned was Secena Doane.

"But, GEE WHIZ," Ted marveled,

"I thought you always said this Doane was a reg'lar nut!"

"That's no way to speak of a great man! Doane's always been a good
friend of mine--fact I helped him in college--I started him out
and you might say inspired him. Just because he's sympathetic
with the aims of Labor, a lot of chumps that lack liberality and
broad-mindedness think he's a crank, but let me tell you there's
mighty few of 'em that rake in the fees he does, and he's a friend
of some of the strongest; most conservative men in the world--like
*Lord WYCOMBE* , this, uh, *this big English nobleman* that's so
well known. And you now, which would you rather do: be in with
a lot of greasy mechanics and laboring-men, or chum up to a
real fellow like *Lord WYCOMBE* , and get invited to
his house for parties?" "Well--gosh," sighed Ted.
...............................................................
_ 'Nobody can dictate to me what I think!'

'You're the man I want to help me. I want you to talk to
some of the business men and try to make them a little more
*liberal* in their attitude toward poor Beecher *INGRAM* .'

' *INGRAM* ' But, why, he's this nut *PREACHER* that got
kicked out of *the Congregationalist Church* , isn't he,
and preaches free love and sedition''

This, Doane explained, was indeed the general conception of Beecher
*INGRAM*, but he himself saw Beecher *INGRAM* as a priest of the
brotherhood of man, of which Babbitt was notoriously an upholder.

So would Babbitt keep his acquaintances from
hounding *INGRAM* and his forlorn little church'

'You bet! I'll call down any of the boys I hear getting funny about
*INGRAM* ,' Babbitt said affectionately to his dear friend Doane.

Doane warmed up and became reminiscent. He spoke of student days in
Germany, of lobbying for single tax in Washington, of international
labor conferences. He mentioned his friends, *Lord WYCOMBE* , Colonel
Wedgwood, Professor Piccoli. Babbitt had always supposed that Doane
associated only with the I. W. W., but now he nodded gravely, as one
who knew Lord Wycombes by the score, and he got in two references
to Sir Gerald Doak. He felt daring & idealistic & cosmopolitan.

<<mention of Park Honan's upcoming biography of Marlowe
reminds me of a recent article by Lisa Hopkins in 'Notes &
Queries' 2004; 51(3) called "New Light on Marlowe's Murderer".

Hopkins did research on FRIZER's background, finding FRIZERs in
Herefordshire, Canterbury & Kingsclere in Hampshire. She concludes
that there is fairly solid evidence that Ingram was the son of
Peter FRIZER in Kingsclere, & that he had a brother named Francis.

So, she asks, did the vicar of St. Nicholas know Francis FRIZER?

Mocks married men; for thus sings he, Cuckoo;
Cuckoo, cuckoo: O word of fear,
Unpleasing to a married ear!

And merry larks are ploughmen's clocks,
When turtles tread, and rooks, and daws,

KING PHILIP: Good rEVERend father, make my person yours,
And tell me how you would bestow yourself.
This royal hand and mine are newly knit,
And the conjunction of our inward souls
Married in league, coupled and linked together
With all religious strength of sacred vows;
The latest breath that gave the sound of words
Was DEEP-sworn faith, peace, amity, *TRUE* love
Between our kingdoms and our royal selves,
And even before this truce, but new before,
No longer than we well could wash our hands
To clap this royal bargain up of peace,
Heaven knows, they were besmear'd and OVER-stain'd
With sLAUGHTER's pencil, where REVEnge did *PAINT*
The fearful difference of incensed kings:
And shall these hands, so lately purged of blood,
So newly join'd in love, so strong in both,
Unyoke this seizure and this kind regreet?
Play fast and loose with faith? so *JEST* with heaven,
Make such unconstant children of ourselves,
As now again to snatch our PALM from PALM,
Unswear faith sworn, and on the marriage-bed
Of smiling peace to march a bloody host,
And make a riot on the gentle brow
Of *TRUE* sincerity? O, holy sir,
My rEVERend father, let it not be so!
Out of your grace, devise, ordain, impose
Some gentle order; and then we shall be blest
To do your pleasure and continue friends.

Act 4, Scene 2

SALISBURY: Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp,
To guard a title that was rich before,
To gild refined gold, to *PAINT* the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
