Baconian Acrostics, Anagrams, Monograms, & Secret Signatures, in the Shakespeare Poems & Plays

The Epistle Dedicatorie

OK, Yann opened my eyes. Then I looked and at every turn I am seeing clues. The first page is very interesting, but since the second page was mentioned I wanted to examine.

https://internetshakespeare.uvic.ca/Library/facsimile/book/Bran_F1/5/index.html%3Fzoom=1200.html

https://ota.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/repository/xmlui/bitstream/handle/20.500.12024/A11954/A11954.html?sequence=5&isAllowed=y

Obviously a Rosicrucian Dedicatorie with 287 words (highlighted).

"We haue but collected them, and done an office to the
dead, to procure his Orphanes, Guardians; vvithout ambition ei-
­ther of selfe-profit, or fame: onely to keepe the memory of so worthy
a Friend, & Fellow aliue, as was our SHAKESPEARE, by hum-
­ble offer of his playes, to your most noble patronage."

These words are not referring to De Vere, but about and to the mythical man who was Bacon's Mask, while giving praise to Bacon himself. I'm sorry, but no way in my mind they are speaking to a ghost of Oxenfart who would never read this dedicatorie. Even with a "great gas" hint that stands out, I seriously doubt the embarrassing De Vere was even on anybody's mind in 1623. They are speaking to and winking at a living Brother in their circle they all Love.

Oh my! So much more I am seeing about Bacon! Let me pause and hopefully come back later...

It is all Bacon!

Little bit to share.

Both pages are very important. On the first page we read, "name" and 33 words later we read, "Author liuing". 33 is the well-known Simple cipher for BACON.

174 characters between those words as well and 174 is the Simple cipher for FRANCIS BACON TUDOR.

Visually there is a lot going on. In fact, an entire study of this would be worth-while. But for a quickie tonight, just a few points.

So starting with the big "W", we can count 102 characters up to and including the "ill" of "ill fortune." So we have "W...ill", right?

ONE HUNDRED TWO is 157 Simple, 168 Reverse, 58 Short, and 287 Kaye ciphers, the exact same four cipher numbers as WILLIAM TUDOR I. The numbers 102 and 201 are very strong cipher signatures for WILLIAM TUDOR I and also almost as strong a signature for FRA ROSI CROSSE (same Simple, Reverse, and Kaye ciphers).

Add up the Capital letters on the above image and we have 102 Simple cipher, the same signature again:

W H L L F H H D B L L A

http://www.light-of-truth.com/ciphers.html

Of course whoever created this masterpiece was well-trained in Bacon's style and they knew who he was exactly, and that he was alive to enjoy the work they were doing for him!

From the big "W" up to "Authour liuing" are 111 words. The Kaye cipher of BACON.

How about that AUTHOUR LIUING is 157 Reverse and 168 Simple cipher, the flip-flop of 102 which is 157 Simple and 168 Reverse, WILLIAM TUDOR I.

The living Author was alive and well. A Rosicrucian Brother, born as William Tudor, known as Francis Bacon, and writing as William Shakespeare. Those who were involved in putting together the First Folio knew him, loved him, and enjoyed themselves very much. In my opinion anyway, based on what I have seen over and over throughout the many years.

Ok, enough for now. Haven't even got into the cool visual stuff! 😉

Amazing eye, Yann!!!!

I love how the two legs of the M look like two pillars to me with the V directing the line through them.

We have the two T's of "THE" and "Tragicall" and the double "ll" could another set of pillars one must pass beyond to discover Truth.

THE TRAGICALL is 111 Simple cipher which makes sense after passing 11.

 

 

I still have my unfinished Sonnet 110 > 111 pending. Maybe I'll try to finish it later today... 🙂

 

 

 

[Allisnum2er]

Thank you Rob ! I had the same idea regarding the two legs of the M but I choose to go straight to the point. I was sure that you would not miss the pillars 😉 !

You  also have the T(ragicall) and the H(AMLET) that form the Triple Tau, Templum Hierosolyma or Templum Heliopolis.

I really look forward to discovering your take on Sonnets 110 and 111 ! 😊

Update, and a note to myself:

Planning for a week or so to do a B'Hive post on 9-18 (my plan beginning as we moved into Sonnet 110 on Thursday the 15th) after a fun concert and staying at a historic Tampa Bay view spa/resort with an amazing Bay view on Theresa and my 13th wedding Anniversary on less than an hour sleep as I was still very excited about everything happening around me with all of my senses on full awareness was a mistake. I spent Friday night after Ringo Starr watching twinkling lights of downtown Tampa sparkle with traffic lights slowly moving across several Bay bridges and really pretty flying machines in the air landing and taking off at two international airports near by reflecting off Tampa Bay water until dawn. The warm humid tropical Florida breeze felt so good on my skin on our private balcony. What a treat for me and Bacon. (I was sending serious vibes back to Bacon and Dee...) I kept repeating a Mel Brooks quote in my mind thinking of our friend Francis Bacon, "It is good to be the King." (I am King of my tiny world when Theresa allows me be King which I had permission last weekend.) In fact, Lawrence is my King in some ways, and he got at least a text or two from me.

Before dawn I watched wild bunnies come out and run around the gardens and grounds, thinking something along lines of back to back cronies in my carnival-like brain. The moon came up in my view over the water. It rained lightly almost all night, yet I could see stars through the clouds. The smell in the air was what we expect the Arundel garden to smell like after a good long rain where Bacon "left" this world in 1626. I thought of that Garden and the collection of ancient statutes and art, with bunnies running around that Bacon mus have enjoyed during his life.

But at the end of the night on the 18th after being home and unpacking, my writing on the post I planned to share was so typo ridden and scattered, my mind going this way and that, my happy mind loaded overfull with numbers and clues I had been collecting, it was a total mess that even I had a hard time following. I've been editing and deleting so much since then, and can't say I will even succeed in making it a public post today. I'm trying, but if I fail, next year is like tomorrow...

This was my lead into the post, for what its worth:

September 18, 2022 (NINE EIGHTEEN = 111 Simple cipher)

Yea, I know, most people who read this post already know we entered the 11th Tier of the Sonnets Pyramid Design at midnight last night/this morning when Sonnet 110 ended and Sonnet 111 started. I hope to not be annoying to repeat what you already know and have been thinking about for the past few days like I have.

Even though a couple nights of great sleep later, being fully back in reality and work, every time I look up I see 110 or 111, and still one right after the other.

Life is funny.

I apologize, no 110>111 post coming this time.

A lot of what I planned we've kicked around before on 110 and 111. I stumbled on some new stuff though, even tonight.

However, I intended to post last Wednesday night to start this whole transition thing from Sonnet 110 to 111 and I had a lot in my pocket to share. But there was no way I could do it with everything going on here. Every day since I thought I'd be able to post about where we were in Sonnet 110 leading up to midnight Saturday night when we'd enter Sonnet 111.

I started to feel like maybe I am being held back. It happens, I know over the years sometimes I am held back by powers higher than I understand. Sometimes the timing is not right and it may be Bacon or Dee making life where I become tongue-tied. Who knows, maybe it is Ben who took the role to shut a mouth in the future who is blabbing at the wrong time.

I have felt that a little for days, yet still pursued and hoped to tell what I am thinking.

The Elizabeth II transition to King Charles III (do you see a 11 to 111?) happening at the same time is curious. The funeral was in the middle of Sonnet 111 on Line 9 of Sonnet 111 and Line 1550 of the Sonnets. Sonnet 110 begins with Line 1528 only 33 Lines from Line 1561 in Sonnet 112 after passing beyond Sonnet 110 and 111. Lines 110 and 111 of the Sonnets with the word "one" twice in Line 110 and then another "one" in Line 111 to complete 11 to 111. So many places, so much to share, and at every turn another connection pops up.

Today I started to finish editing and tweaking what I started to actually type out on the 18th with several days of ideas in my head. It started out OK today, but I was overwhelmed quickly with so much going that on I wrote already. Plus finding new connections on top of what I am trying my best to reduce to something easier. I have a dozen images in my first wild attempt, and it is missing much. Tidbits on top of tidbits, numbers crossing and intersecting. 11 to 111, 110 to 111, so on.

I realized after an hour or so today, this post is not happening in the near future, or even this month. Bacon, Dee, Ben, and I swear Elizabeth I was stomping on my hands as I tried to type. So I finally gave up. "No this is not happening right now. Are you happy Francis Bacon?"

The sun was shining in my window which during the Equinox times makes it hard in the late afternoon to do anything at my PC. I am blinded, so have to hide my eyes from the sun. I ultimately let go of this project, gave up, leaned back looking at the images I screenshot and my scattered attempt at explaining the entire Universe while letting go. Finally. I let go, let loose of the spring I had been winding. At that point Theresa yelled, "Look at the rain!" I looked outside my window and it was pouring rain! With the sun in my face! I knew there would be a rainbow in the opposite direction so I went out our front door and stood under our sunsetter canopy and watched a very heavy rain while seeing a rainbow and the houses across the street lit up by the sun.

That might happen for a few minutes every year, but we had over an hour of hard rain with the sun shining on us the entire time. We were on the western edge of a big thunderstorm that did not move. Strangest storm of the year. It was a wonderful sign, the heavens released and facing the west I had to squint in the sun through the rain and then facing the east a big rainbow stayed in place while it just poured heavy rain flooding our street.

October 14 is Day 287 after we pass beyond the 11th Tier that began with Sonnet 111. So maybe by then I can work out this post. 😉

Yesterday I heard, in a lecture video about English history in the centuries leading up to 1066 (Jennifer Paxton, England: From the Fall of Rome to the Norman Conquest," Great Courses, free on Prime for next 6 days or so), that "only a freeman could own a spear." The Wikipedia article, "Weaponry in Anglo-Saxon England" has this point, too, at fn 14, with reference.

The name "Francis," of course, means "free," or, "a Frenchman." The website "Behind the Name" says the name comes from the Latin "Franciscus," which comes from the Germanic Franks who were "named for the type of spear they used." "The Frankish Way of War" article at the Weapons and War dot com website (6/8/19) says the "franciscae" was a "throwing axe" hurled like a Roman pilum while the "Frankish spear" was the "angon," a shorter spear thrown like a javelin (or Roman pilum) or used in hand-to-hand combat.  See also "Frank Warriors," Ancient Warriors, Legends and Warriors dot com. Trying to avoid a lot of links). Bacon knew his history, especially his Roman history, so he would have known how the Franks fought.

"Every word doth almost tell my name."--Shakespeare (Sonnet 76, on Poetry Foundation website)

The book I know on acrostics is William Stone Booth's book, Subtle Shining Secrecies Writ in the Margents of Books, generally ascribed to William Shakespeare, the actor and here ascribed to William Shakespeare, the poet (Boston, 1925). He says it is his best book, with his best examples.

Question: are there acrostics in the opening lines of every Shakespeare poem or play?

[Light-of-Truth]

Wow! Wow! Wow!

I was looking at where we are in the Sonnets Pyramid. We are in Day 300. (Thank you Allisnum2er as I suspect you knew I'd see the 300 and want to jump in.)

http://www.light-of-truth.com/pyramid-GMT.php#Line1771

Line 1776 begins on Thursday, October 27 which is Day 300, at Midnight we are still in Line 1776.

Day 301, October 28 begins in Line 1776, but its first full day in is Line 1777.

THREE HUNDRED ONE is 157 Simple cipher and 365 Kaye cipher. That is very important. Like 183.

http://www.light-of-truth.com/ciphers.html

We know 1776 is a big year for we Bacon New Atlantians, as was July 2 that was also Sealed.
with both the secret seal numbers.

On page 300, I see "King" repeatedly! And what is with "to Douer"? All I hear loud and clear is Tudor King!

I am Shake Speake? The Lunaticke King Tudor? Francis Bacon?

Page 301 follows 300.

 

[Light-of-Truth]

To add, remembering something I forgot.

King Lear was the first Shakespeare play I read from beginning to end. May be the only play. I think I read The Tempest beginning to end. Or tried to. But I know I read King Lear from Act 1, Scene 1 to the end. More than once. I also felt what Bacon was sharing. Funny, horrible, but his life for we who see.

And Bacon shares openly some of how he knew he was supposed to be the King of England.

   Glou. I haue a Letter guessingly set downe
Which came from one that's of a newtrall heart,
And not from one oppos'd.

Bacon had letters, and was told by multiple people, and once he knew the truth (for we know the truth) and asked, some confirmed it. King Lear is one of Bacon's tools to share his life. Twelfth Night as well. Malvolio's powerful letter in Twelfth Night was Bacon's to his mother Elizabeth.

Fab. Reads. By the Lord Madam, you wrong me, and
the world shall know it: Though you haue put mee into
darkenesse, and giuen your drunken Cosine rule ouer me,
yet haue I the benefit of my senses as well as your Ladie-
ship. I haue your owne letter, that induced mee to the
semblance I put on; with the which I doubt not, but to
do my selfe much right, or you much shame: thinke of
me as you please. I leaue my duty a little vnthought of,
and speake out of my iniury. The madly vs'd Maluolio.

Two plays where letters matter. Both let Bacon to speak Truth. Such a rare opportunity for him to do that.

Malvolio means Ill Will. How obvious is that??

Bravo Shake Speake, you Lunaticke King! Francis Bacon! Bravo!

Hi everyone,

Here is a glimpse of the video I am working on for the 22nd of January 😉.

I hope to finish it in due time !!!

Here is a beautiful Baconian Signature on page 100 (the last page) of the 2nd Part of King Henry IV ...

 

Notice that the W in BAC(W)N can be seen like the Greek Letter Omega.

Edited January 10 by Light-of-Truth

[Allisnum2er]

I would like to share with you something that I have just noticed.

My research for my B B'day video led me back to A Lovers Complaint.

And by using the "mediocria firma" technique on the first page here is what I 've found ...

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Lover's_Complaint#/media/Fichier:A_Lover's_Complaint,_1609.jpg

It gives us :

William Shake-speare -Bacon doble - Bacon undistinguisht

Now, by counting from "William" and not from "From"😄 ...

"raine" the last word of the first strophe is the 57th word , 57 = FRA BACON (simple cipher)

"content" is the 148th word         148 = WILLIAM TUDOR

"undistinguisht" is the 154th word ( a reference to the 154 Sonnets ? )

And I like the fact that "tun'd" and "tale" are the words 33 and 34.

33 = BACON         33+34=67=FRANCIS

Tun'd tale = 92 = BACON (reverse cipher)

Hi everyone,

Yesterday evening, I watched a recent video by an Oxfordian trying to demonstrate that The Tempest was written by Edward de Vere the 17 th Earl of Oxford.

It was very difficult to watch it till the end. My eyes and my ears were stinging and bleeding. 😄

But here is the positive side. 😊

In his video, he analyses the monologue of Prospero, and along the way I noticed something very interesting.

We know that "The Tempest", the first Play of the First Folio, would be the last Play written by Shakespeare.

( I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA)

And we like to think that the last word of the monologue "Free" is the true final word of the First Folio with:

FREE = 33 = BACON (Simple cipher)

FREE = 111 = BACON (Kaye cipher)

FREE = 67 (Reverse cipher) = FRANCIS (Simple cipher)

BUT FREE IS NOT THE FINAL WORD !

Indeed, THE TEMPEST ends with the names of the Actors.

WHAT IF ?

Here are some ideas, my take on this passage that I analysed this morning for the first time.

And for me, the word "FREE" introduces an incredible ending.

This is my answer to the Oxfordians claiming that The Tempest was written by De Vere ...

 

 

 

[Allisnum2er]

And finally, here are, I think, the very last words of the Author of The Tempest and of the First Folio ...

[Allisnum2er]

[Light-of-Truth]

EPILOGVE,
spoken by Prospero.

NOw my Charmes are all ore-throwne,
And what strength I haue's mine owne.
Which is most faint: now 'tis true
I must be heere confinde by you,
Or sent to Naples, Let me not
Since I haue my Dukedome got,
And pardon'd the deceiuer, dwell
In this bare Island, by your Spell,
But release me from my bands
With the helpe of your good hands:
Gentle breath of yours, my Sailes
Must fill, or else my proiect failes,
Which was to please: Now I want
Spirits to enforce: Art to inchant,
And my ending is despaire,
Vnlesse I be relieu'd by praier
Which pierces so, that it assaults
Mercy it selfe, and frees all faults.
   As you from crimes would pardon'd be,
   Let your Indulgence set me free.           Exit

 

The first time I read this when I had been several hours into a Deep exploration of the Tempest, it made me cry with Joy. Bacon/Dee were talking directly to me, asking for help from my good hands to fill his Sailes with my gentle breath or else their project would fail. I accepted, and knew exactly what was meant.

These lines are a Call to Arms for we Baconians. This is where Bacon asks for our help. The purpose is clear. He is conjuring Spirits to enforce, Art to inchant, asking to be reliev'd by praier which PIERCES so that it assaults Mercy itself and frees all faults. "Let your Indulgence set me free."

Another diversity of method there is, which hath some affinity with the former, used in some cases by the discretion of the ancients, but disgraced since by the impostures of many vain persons, who have made it as a false light for their counterfeit merchandises; and that is, enigmatical and disclosed. The pretence whereof is, to remove the vulgar capacities from being admitted to the secrets of knowledges, and to reserve them to selected auditors, or wits of such sharpness as can pierce the veil.
