When Rutlandbaconsouthamptonshakespeare or another poet of the same
name in the comedy of errors wrote Hamlet he was not the father of his
own son merely but, being no more a son, he was and felt himself the
father of all his race, the father of his own grandfather, the father
of his unborn grandson who, by the same token, nEVER was born for
nature, as Mr Magee understands her, abhors perfection.

had {A} midwife to {M}other as he had a shrew to wife. But she, the
giglot wanton, did not break a bedvow. Two deeds are rank in that
ghost's mind: a broken *VOW* and the *dullbrained yokel* on whom her
favour has declined, deceased husband's brother. Sweet Ann, I take it,
was hot in the blood. Once a wooer twice a wooer.

Anglia, Dr. Gustav Binz published excerpts from a traveler's
account of a visit to England in 1599. Thomas PLATTer
(b.1574), a Swiss of the canton of Basle, had written:
.
On September 21st after lunch, about two o'clock, I and my party
crossed the water, and there in the house with the thatched
roof witnessed an excellent performance of the tragedy of

"There the story of PLATTner's experiences ends. I have resisted,
I believe successfully, the natural disposition of a writer of

____ MR. POPE'S PREFACE.
.............................................................
I believe the common opinion of his *WANT* of learning proceeded from
no better ground. This too might be thought a praise by some, and to
this his errors have as injudiciously been ascribed by others. For
'tis certain, were it TRUE, it would concern but a small part of them;
the most are such as are not properly defects, but superfoetations;
and arise not from *WANT* of learning or reading, [B]ut from *WANT*
of thinking or judging : or r[A]ther (to be more just to our author)
from a [C]ompliance to those *WANTS* in others. As t[O] a wrong
choice of the subject, a wrong co[N]duct of the incidents,
false thoughts, f[O]rced expressions, &c.

<<The story goes that when Carausius revolted from the Roman Emperor
Maximilian and set himself up as the Emperor of Britain, he employed
St. Alban to environ the city of Verulam with a wall and to build for
him a splendid palace. To reward his diligence in executing these
works, the Emperor Carausius appointed St. Alban as *STEWARD* of his
household and chief ruler, after himself, of the realm. He also made
St. Alban the paymaster and Governor of the King’s (Emperor’s) works.
Then, in order to make himself and his government acceptable to the
people of Britain, Carausius assumed the character of a *MASON* and
raised the *MASONS* to the first rank as his favourites, appointing
St. Alban as the Principal Superintendent of their assemblies. St.
Alban gave the fraternity the Charges and Manners as St. Amphibal had
taught him (i.e. framed for them a constitution), assisted them in
making *MASONS*, treated them with great kindness and increased their
pay. Later on, in the year AD 287, Carausius granted the *MASONS* a
charter and commanded Albanus to preside over them as Grand Master.
.
It is clear that St. Alban was certainly nEVER a knight, nor the
*STEWARD* of an emperor’s household and chief ruler (after the
emperor) of the realm, and that Amphibalus is a personification of
the ecclesiastical *CLOAK* , amphibalum, which St. Alban donned
(just as St. Veronica is a personification of Christ’s *TRUE*
image imprinted on the handkerchief which coVEREd his face).
.
HowEVER, the strange elements of the story, when applied
allegorically to the later St. Alban — *VIsCOUNT* St. Alban
— fit like a glove. Sir Francis Bacon was a knight and
he was also St. Alban—*VIsCOUNT* St. Alban, who wore
the *CLOAK* or ‘vestment’ (amphibalum) of St. Alban.>>
........................................................
<<Francis Bacon was knighted in 1603,
and created both the Baron VERULAm in 1618,
and the *VIsCOUNT* St Alban in 1621.>>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynthia%27s_Revels
.
<<Cynthia's Revels was one element in the so-called Poetomachia or War
of the Theatres between Jonson and rival playrwights John Marston and
Thomas Dekker. The play was first performed in 1600 at the Blackfriars
Theatre by the Children of the Chapel, one of the troupes of boy
actors active in that era. The Children acted the play at the English
Royal Court during the 1600–1 Christmas season. Judson argued that
Jonson modeled this play (for him, an atypically unrealistic work) on
the plays of John Lyly, specifically Lyly's Galathea, Midas, Sapho and
Phao, and Endymion. Jonson's pages in Cynthia, "Cupid, Morus, and the
rest, are repetitions of Samias, Dares, and Epiton" in Endymion, the
Man in the Moon (1591). The play begins with three pages disputing
over the black *CLOAK* usually worn by the actor who delivers the
prologue. They draw lots for the *CLOAK*, and one of the losers,
Anaides, starts telling the audience what happens in the play to come;
the others try to suppress him, interrupting him and putting their
hands over his mouth. Soon they are fighting over the *CLOAK*
and criticizing the author and the spectators as well.>>

<<Sir Walter Raleigh was the unquestionable favorite of Queen
Elizabeth I, even though he was endowed with a long face, a high
forehead, and "pig eyes." However, that he once stepped forth from a
crowd, gallantly doffed his *CLOAK* , and threw it over a mud puddle
to protect the feet of the passing queen is fiction. The story
probably originated with historian Thomas Fuller. Later, Sir Walter
Scott kept the myth alive in his 1821 Elizabethan romance, Kenilworth.
"Hark ye, Master Raleigh, see thou fail not to wear thy muddy
*CLOAK* ," the queen exhorts Sir Walter, "in token of penitence,
till our pleasure be further known." Sir Walter vows never to clean
the *CLOAK* , and later the queen, delighted with his gallantry,
invites him to visit the royal wardrobe keeper that he may be
fitted for "a suit, and that of the newest cut.">>

Or may she that day-lasting Lillie be,

The Viper here, that stung the sheepheard swaine,
(While careles of himselfe asleepe he lay,)
With Hysope caught, is cut by him in twaine,
Her fat might take, the poison quite away,
And heale his wound, that wonder tis to see,
Such soveraigne helpe, should in a Serpent be.
By this same Leach, is meant the virtuous King,
Who can with cunning, out of *MANNERS* ill,
Make wholesome lawes, and take away the sting,
Wherewith foule vice, doth greeue the virtuous still:
Or can prevent, by quicke and wise foresight,

Who where he comes, will make a goodly show
Of wit, or wealth, when it is nothing so.

Or wouldst thou Musick to delight thine eare,
Step but aside into the neighbour spring,
Thou shalt a thousand wing'd Musitians heare,
Each praising in his kind the heauenly King:

<<One of the first groups of atomists in England was
a cadre of amateur scientists known as the Northumberland
circle, led by Henry *PERCY* (1585–1632), the 9th Earl of
Northumberland. Although they published little of account,
they helped to disseminate *ATOMistic ideas among the*
burgeoning scientific culture of England, and may
have been particularly influential to Francis Bacon,
who became an atomist around 1605.>>

Themselues together, in all frendly loue;

On one another, when no cause doth moue:
But letting quarrels, and old grudges cease,
Be reconcild, to liue, and die, in peace.

Within there was a Circlet round,
That rais'd it selfe, of softest grasse,
No Velvet smoother spred on ground,
Or Em'rald GREENEr ever was:
In mid'st there sate a beauteous Dame,
(Not PAPHOS Queene, so faire a wight)
For Roses by, did blush for shame,
To see a purer, red and white.
In Robe of woven Silver fine,
And deepest Crimson she was clad:
Then diaper'd with golden twine,
Aloft a Mantle GREENE she had,
Whereon were wrought, with rarest skill
Faire Cities, Castles, Rivers, Woods;
And here, and there, emboss'd a hill
With Fountaines, and the Nymphes of Floods.
A massie Collar set with stones,
Did over a[L]l, [I]t [S]e[L]f[E] extend,
Whereon in sparkling Diamonds,
SAINT GEORGE, her Patrone did depend;
A Crowne Imperial on her head,
One hand a bright drawne Sword did hold,
The other (most that made her dredd,)
Three Scepters of the finest gold.
While proudly vnderfoote she trod,
Rich Trophæies, and victorious spoiles,
Atchieued by her might abroad:
Her name is EMPRESSE OF THE ILES:
There Charriots were, that once she wanne,
From CÆSAR, ere she was betraid,
With standards gat from Pagans, whan
She lent the Holy Land her aide.
Here saw I many a shiver'd launce,
Swordes, Battle-axes, Cannons Slinges,
With th' Armes of PORTVGAL, and FRAVNCE,
And Crownets of her pettie Kinges:
High-feathered Helmets for the Tilt,
Bowes, Steelie Targets cleft in twaine:
Coates, Cornets, Armours richly guilt,
With tatterd Ensignes out of SPAINE.

<<Thomas Wolsey's father was said to have been a BUTCHER but he was a
prosperous merchant who owned an abbatoir and a house in Silent
Street, Ipswich. Wolsey had risen to power and became Lord Chancellor
and was a cardinal by the age of 41. In 1514 he built a sumptuous
palace at Hampton Court (only part of which remains) which he gave up
to Henry VIII in 1525. Wolsey was the papal legate but after 2 years
of negotiations, he failed to get a divorce for the king because
Charles V of Hapsburg, the Holy Roman Emperor (Catalina's nephew)
opposed it. He also had Anne Boleyn's hatred to contend with.
In October 1529 he was deposed and sent to his See of York.
In 1530 (when he was dying), he was arrested and died
at Leicester Abbey on his way to London.
.
Several of Thomas Cromwell's letters are still extant; one about
John Winter, is addressed to Roger Winter and two to Sir William
Fitzwilliam, the Admiral. It was on this basis that the assumption
was made that Wolsey's mistress (described as "one Joan LARKE")
was sister of John Winter of Bristol but she may have been
the daughter of Peter LARKE, an inn-keeper of Thetford.
.
His son *THOMAS LARKE* (d. 1530) became Wolsey's confessor &
the King's chaplain. He was given a canonry of St. Stephen's
on 10.11.1511 and became Master of Trinity Hall, Cambridge
in 1520-5. Wolsey's chaplain may have had some connection
. with *THOMAS LARKE* , vinteyner or captain
. of a troop of 20 soldiers and Lord Lisle's secretary.

Anglia, Dr. Gustav Binz published excerpts from a traveler's
account of a visit to England in 1599. Thomas PLATTer
(b.1574), a Swiss of the canton of Basle, had written:
.

dimension next to ours where *MUTE* "Watchers of the Living",

our world, take keen interest in us.>>

"There the story of PLATTner's experiences ends. I have resisted,
I believe successfully, the natural disposition of a writer of

as far as possible in the order in which PLATTner told it to me."

____ MR. POPE'S PREFACE.
.............................................................
I believe the common opinion of his *WANT* of learning proceeded from
no better ground. This too might be thought a praise by some, and to
this his errors have as injudiciously been ascribed by others. For
'tis certain, were it TRUE, it would concern but a small part of them;
the most are such as are not properly defects, but superfoetations;
and arise not from *WANT* of learning or reading, [B]ut from *WANT*
of thinking or judging : or r[A]ther (to be more just to our author)
from a [C]ompliance to those *WANTS* in others. As t[O] a wrong
choice of the subject, a wrong co[N]duct of the incidents,
false thoughts, f[O]rced expressions, &c.

<<The story goes that when Carausius revolted from the Roman Emperor
Maximilian and set himself up as the Emperor of Britain, he employed
St. Alban to environ the city of Verulam with a wall and to build for
him a splendid palace. To reward his diligence in executing these
works, the Emperor Carausius appointed St. Alban as *STEWARD* of his
household and chief ruler, after himself, of the realm. He also made
St. Alban the paymaster and Governor of the King’s (Emperor’s) works.
Then, in order to make himself and his government acceptable to the
people of Britain, Carausius assumed the character of a *MASON* and
raised the *MASONS* to the first rank as his favourites, appointing
St. Alban as the Principal Superintendent of their assemblies. St.
Alban gave the fraternity the Charges and Manners as St. Amphibal had
taught him (i.e. framed for them a constitution), assisted them in
making *MASONS*, treated them with great kindness and increased their
pay. Later on, in the year AD 287, Carausius granted the *MASONS* a
charter and commanded Albanus to preside over them as Grand Master.
.
It is clear that St. Alban was certainly nEVER a knight, nor the
*STEWARD* of an emperor’s household and chief ruler (after the
emperor) of the realm, and that Amphibalus is a personification of
the ecclesiastical *CLOAK* , amphibalum, which St. Alban donned
(just as St. Veronica is a personification of Christ’s *TRUE*
image imprinted on the handkerchief which coVEREd his face).
.
HowEVER, the strange elements of the story, when applied
allegorically to the later St. Alban — *VIsCOUNT* St. Alban
— fit like a glove. Sir Francis Bacon was a knight and
he was also St. Alban—*VIsCOUNT* St. Alban, who wore
the *CLOAK* or ‘vestment’ (amphibalum) of St. Alban.>>
........................................................
<<Francis Bacon was knighted in 1603,
and created both the Baron VERULAm in 1618,
and the *VIsCOUNT* St Alban in 1621.>>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynthia%27s_Revels
.
<<Cynthia's Revels was one element in the so-called Poetomachia or War
of the Theatres between Jonson and rival playrwights John Marston and
Thomas Dekker. The play was first performed in 1600 at the Blackfriars
Theatre by the Children of the Chapel, one of the troupes of boy
actors active in that era. The Children acted the play at the English
Royal Court during the 1600–1 Christmas season. Judson argued that
Jonson modeled this play (for him, an atypically unrealistic work) on
the plays of John Lyly, specifically Lyly's Galathea, Midas, Sapho and
Phao, and Endymion. Jonson's pages in Cynthia, "Cupid, Morus, and the
rest, are repetitions of Samias, Dares, and Epiton" in Endymion, the
Man in the Moon (1591). The play begins with three pages disputing
over the black *CLOAK* usually worn by the actor who delivers the
prologue. They draw lots for the *CLOAK*, and one of the losers,
Anaides, starts telling the audience what happens in the play to come;
the others try to suppress him, interrupting him and putting their
hands over his mouth. Soon they are fighting over the *CLOAK*
and criticizing the author and the spectators as well.>>

<<Sir Walter Raleigh was the unquestionable favorite of Queen
Elizabeth I, even though he was endowed with a long face, a high
forehead, and "pig eyes." However, that he once stepped forth from a
crowd, gallantly doffed his *CLOAK* , and threw it over a mud puddle
to protect the feet of the passing queen is fiction. The story
probably originated with historian Thomas Fuller. Later, Sir Walter
Scott kept the myth alive in his 1821 Elizabethan romance, Kenilworth.
"Hark ye, Master Raleigh, see thou fail not to wear thy muddy
*CLOAK* ," the queen exhorts Sir Walter, "in token of penitence,
till our pleasure be further known." Sir Walter vows never to clean
the *CLOAK* , and later the queen, delighted with his gallantry,
invites him to visit the royal wardrobe keeper that he may be
fitted for "a suit, and that of the newest cut.">>

Methought I saw in dead of silent night
A goodly Citie all to cinders turned,
Vpon whose ruines sate a Nymphe in white,
Rending her haire of wiery gold, who mourned
Or for the fall of that faire Citie burned,
Or some deare Loue, whose death so made her sad:
That since no ioye in worldly thing she had.
This was that [G]ENIUS of that auntient T[R]OY,
In her owne ashes buri[E]d long agoe:
So grieu'd to s[E]e that BRITAINE should e[N]ioy

And now no litle memorie could show
To eternize her, since she did infuse,

W[I]th whome mild Peace, th[E] most of all desir'd;

While thou to all eternitie admir'd,
Shalt liue a fresh, in after ages praise:
Or be the Loade-starre, of thy glorious North,
Drawing all eies, to wonder at thy worth.

Inconstancie with fickle foote doth stand,
Vpon a Crab, in gowne of palie *GREENE* ,
A shining Cressaunt shewing in he[R] hand,
Which as her selfe, is changing ev[E]r seene:
That cullour light, she borr{O}w[E]s from the Sea,
Whose waues contin{U}e, ne[V]er at a stay.
Forward, and backwa{R}d, Canc[E]r keepes his pace,
Th' inconst{A}nt man, so [D]oubtfull in his waies,
The {P}rivate lif[E], one while will most embrace,
In travaile then, he listes to spend his dayes:
Which was the Kitchin, that he makes a *TOWER* ,
Then downe goes all togeither in an hower.

The perils that our frailtie here amate,
Through heauenly wisedome, is no more afraid
Of Fortunes frowne, and bitter blastes of Fa[T]e:
For though in vale of woes, her dwe[L]ling be,

For mortall thinges [D]oe find their change below,
And nou[G]ht can here defend vs from the show[E]r,

Our golden morne anon begins to lowre:
And while our hopes, are yet but in their sap,
Their buds are blasted by the Thunderclap.

And turne at quiet ore some holy booke;
Or tune the Accent of thy harmelesse laies
Vnto the murmur of the gentle brooke:
Whiles round about thy greedy eie doth looke,
Obseruing wonders in some flower by,
This bent, that leafe, this worme, that butterflie.
Where mightst thou view at full the Hemisphære
On some faire Mountaine, in a Summers night,
In spangles there embraudered is the BEARE,
And here the FISH, there THESEVS louer bright,
The watry HYADS, here deceiue our sight,
ERIDANOS, and there ORION bound,
Another way the silver SWANNE is found.
Or wouldst thou Musick to delight thine eare,
Step but aside into the neighbour spring,
Thou shalt a thousand wing'd Musitians heare,
Each praising in his kind the heauenly King:
Here PHILOMEL, doth her shrill Treble sing,
The THRVSH a Tenor, off a little space,
Some matelesse DOVE, doth murmur out the Base.
Geometry or wishest thou to learne,
Obserue the Mill, the Crane, or Country Cart,
Wherein with pleasure, soone thou shalt discerne
The groundes, and vse of this admired Art,
The rules of NVMBRING, for the greatest part,
As they were first devis'd by Country Swaines,
So still the Art with them entire remaines.
If lou'st thy health, preferre the Country Aire,

Where wholesome herbes, shall it at full repaire,
Before a Quint'sence, or an oily droppe:

to Hotspur [who] is almost glorified into a symbol of bygone chivalry
and champion of feudalistic values. Hotspur's descendent Henry Percy,

Hung silver Sheildes, by three and three,
With Pencill limned curiouslie:

Of all her gallant Knightes, and such
As Actors in her Conquestes were.
Eke some of Queenes, and Ladies too,
As pleased their Invention best,
(For wit of woman, much can doe;)
Were fastned vp among the rest,
In sundry tongues, whose Motto's old,
And names, though scarcely could be read,
She wishd their Glories mought be told,
To after times, though they were dead.

With that victorious Prince his sonne:
Next valiant Iohn of Lancaster,
That Spaine, with English overran:
And those braue spirits Marshalled,
The first that of the Garter were,

Whose names to tell I must forbeare.

With valiant Bedford, Symboles tooke
As pleas'd them, to adorne the Wood.

Be reconcild, to liue, and die, in peace.

-- The tramper Synge is looking for you, he said, to murder you. He
heard you pissed on his halldoor in Gla[S]thule. He's out in
pampooties to m[U]rder you.
-- Me! Stephen exclaimed. That was your cont[R]ibution to literature.
Buck Mulligan gl[E]efully bent back, laughing to the dark
ea[V]esdropping ceiling.
-- Murder you! he laugh[E]d.

-- Antiquity mentions that Stagyrite schoolurchin and bald heathen
sage, Stephen said, who when dying in exile frees and endows his
slaves, pays tribute to his elders, wills to be laid in earth near the
bones of hi[S] dead wife and b[I]ds his friends be kin[D] to an old
mistress (do[N]'t forget Nell Gwynn H[E]rpyllis) and let her l[I]ve in

Manner of Oxenford.
Day. Wheelbarrow sun over arch of bridge.
A dark back went before them. Step of a pard, down, out by the
gateway, under portcullis barbs.
They followed.
Offend me still. Speak on.
Kind air defined the coigns of houses in Kildare street. No birds.
Frail from the housetops two plumes of smoke ascended, pluming, and in
a flaw of softness softly were blown.
Cease to strive. Peace of the druid priests of Cymbeline:
hierophantic: from wide earth an altar.
Laud we the gods
And let our crooked smokes climb to their nostrils
From our bless'd altars.

Within there was a Circlet round,
That rais'd it selfe, of softest grasse,
No Velvet smoother spred on ground,
Or Em'rald GREENEr ever was:
In mid'st there sate a beauteous Dame,
(Not PAPHOS Queene, so faire a wight)
For Roses by, did blush for shame,
To see a purer, red and white.
In Robe of woven Silver fine,
And deepest Crimson she was clad:
Then diaper'd with golden twine,
Aloft a Mantle GREENE she had,
Whereon were wrought, with rarest skill
Faire Cities, Castles, Rivers, Woods;
And here, and there, emboss'd a hill
With Fountaines, and the Nymphes of Floods.
A massie Collar set with stones,
Did over a[L]l, [I]t [S]e[L]f[E] extend,
Whereon in sparkling Diamonds,
SAINT GEORGE, her Patrone did depend;
A Crowne Imperial on her head,
One hand a bright drawne Sword did hold,
The other (most that made her dredd,)
Three Scepters of the finest gold.
While proudly vnderfoote she trod,
Rich Trophæies, and victorious spoiles,
Atchieued by her might abroad:
Her name is EMPRESSE OF THE ILES:
There Charriots were, that once she wanne,
From CÆSAR, ere she was betraid,
With standards gat from Pagans, whan
She lent the Holy Land her aide.
Here saw I many a shiver'd launce,
Swordes, Battle-axes, Cannons Slinges,
With th' Armes of PORTVGAL, and FRAVNCE,
And Crownets of her pettie Kinges:
High-feathered Helmets for the Tilt,
Bowes, Steelie Targets cleft in twaine:
Coates, Cornets, Armours richly guilt,
With tatterd Ensignes out of SPAINE.

editor of the family's letters, all of which were preserved
after Lisle was arrested and investigated by the State -
were either entirely illiterate or left only signatures for
the most part), and Lisle (a highly educated nobleman) has
been described as the best penman in Henry VIII's court.>>

<<Thomas Wolsey's father was said to have been a BUTCHER but he was a
prosperous merchant who owned an abbatoir and a house in Silent
Street, Ipswich. Wolsey had risen to power and became Lord Chancellor
and was a cardinal by the age of 41. In 1514 he built a sumptuous
palace at Hampton Court (only part of which remains) which he gave up
to Henry VIII in 1525. Wolsey was the papal legate but after 2 years
of negotiations, he failed to get a divorce for the king because
Charles V of Hapsburg, the Holy Roman Emperor (Catalina's nephew)
opposed it. He also had Anne Boleyn's hatred to contend with.
In October 1529 he was deposed and sent to his See of York.
In 1530 (when he was dying), he was arrested and died
at Leicester Abbey on his way to London.
.
Several of Thomas Cromwell's letters are still extant; one about
John Winter, is addressed to Roger Winter and two to Sir William
Fitzwilliam, the Admiral. It was on this basis that the assumption
was made that Wolsey's mistress (described as "one Joan LARKE")
was sister of John Winter of Bristol but she may have been
the daughter of Peter LARKE, an inn-keeper of Thetford.
.
His son *THOMAS LARKE* (d. 1530) became Wolsey's confessor &
the King's chaplain. He was given a canonry of St. Stephen's
on 10.11.1511 and became Master of Trinity Hall, Cambridge
in 1520-5. Wolsey's chaplain may have had some connection
. with *THOMAS LARKE* , vinteyner or captain
. of a troop of 20 soldiers and Lord Lisle's secretary.
.
Admiral Arthur Plantagenet, Lord Lisle
(Edward IV's illegitimate son by Elizabeth,
relative of Thomas Lucy of Charlecote).
