I am Alpha and Omega.

[Allisnum2er]

" I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. "

Revelation 22:13 - King James Bible

 

The story begins four days ago.

Last tuesday evening, I watched a video by Glen Alexander , an Oxfordian, about "The Secret Of The Sonnets"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrE594RvKsA&t=1760s

His video brought to my attention (at 24:00) a book of Emblems that I did not know :

The English Edition of "Iconologia" by Cesare Ripa, published in 1709.

https://archive.org/details/iconologiaormora00ripa/page/n5/mode/2up

In his video, he shares the connections between Iconologia and Shakespeare's Sonnet proving that De Vere was Shakespeare.

The fact is that I immediatly saw the connections proving that BACON was Shakespeare.

This is what I am about to share with you.

Evidently 1709 is precisely 100 years after 1609 the year of publication of both

Shakespeare's Sonnets AND The Wisdom of the Ancients by Francis Bacon.

And 100 is the simple cipher of FRANCIS BACON.

 

Glen Alexander noticed that there are 326 Emblems and explains that with the "I" of "Iconologia"

it forms the year 1623, the year of publication of the First Folio.

I totally agree with him regarding the hidden "1623" but he missed one point :

" The Alpha and the Omega".

The key here is "the Alpha and the Omega" which means the First and the Last Emblem.

The First Emblem hides a reference to the Goddess FORTUNA and the Last Emblem hides a reference to the WHEEL !

We have to find "THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE"

When I discovered these two Emblems side by side, I wondered if there was a link between Queen Elizabeth and Fortuna.

If it was the case then "THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE" would conceal  "THE WILL OF QUEEN ELIZABETH" 😊

Indeed, there is a link and here is a great article about the subject :

https://www.academia.edu/10071466/_Eliza_Fortuna_Reconsidering_the_Ditchley_Portrait_of_Elizabeth_I_The_Burlington_Magazine_156_1334_May_2014_293_298

https://archive.org/details/emblematanobilit00bryt/page/n47/mode/2up

When I discovered the meaning of the Latin inscription, I knew that I was on the right path.

And imagine my surprise when I zoomed on the "GRAAL" that FORTUNA holds !

There is a relation with "The Last Portrait" :

https://sirbacon.org/bacon-forum/index.php?/topic/77-the-last-portrait/

I had to go further !

I took a look to Page 34 because with Bacon and co, pages 33 and 34 often work together (see Minerva Britanna).

And as if by magic, almost all was there !

And regarding the connection between BACON , BACCHUS and JOVIS, here is another proof ...

Now, do we have in this book a proof that BACON was SHAKESPEARE ?

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT EMBLEM 177.

Chapter VI : Pan, or Nature https://www.bartleby.com/82/6.html

Notice that the Emblem 179 is in relation with the year of publication of the book in 1709 ! 😉

To be continued ...

 

[Allisnum2er]

" I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. "

Revelation 22:13 - King James Bible

 

As I told you, all is about "The Beginning and the End".

 

 

About the symbolism of ivy : https://interestingliterature.com/2021/05/ivy-symbolism-in-literature-religion-mythology-analysis-meaning/

I let you discover what is actually behind "REBUS ME SERVO SECUNDIS" but let me tell you that it involves

QUEEN ELIZABETH , MARTIN LUTHER AND THE REFORMATION.

 

Please note that the Emblem 131 and 132 are very interesting too, but for the clarity of my presentation I decided to avoid them.

NOW ,LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT EMBLEM 157 !

To be continued ...

" I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. "

Revelation 22:13 - King James Bible

 

"The Beginning" and "The End" are two of the 326 emblems of Iconologia (1709)

Respectively on page 62 and 31 of the book , they conceal the years of publication of the First and Second Folio

and one of the secret signature of Francis Bacon (FBAC).

For more explanation : https://sirbacon.org/all-is-num2er/ First video (1623)

Interestingly enough, the 374th page of the First Folio is one of the three pages of the Book in which appears the word BACON.

 

 

 

 

To conclude, two of the 326 Emblems of Iconologia are about GLORY : the Emblems 141 and 148 !

THE END

 

[Light-of-Truth]

Nice work!!!

[A Phoenix]

Good Evening High Wizard of B'Hive. A treble WOW! In my humble opinion Yann, you are most probably the only Baconian in the world who posseses the kind of intellect, imagination and cerebral dexterity to conceive, connect and execute something like this. Absolute Masteclass.   

[Light-of-Truth]

Curious The WILL is the very last emblem. Great find!

Bacon was Elizabeth's Will, and in my dream with Dee, she became reckless with it. One needs to be careful with their Will. 😉

Sonnets 135 and 136:

WHo euer hath her wish,thou hast thy Will,
And Will too boote,and Will in ouer-plus,
More then enough am I that vexe thee still,
To thy sweete will making addition thus.
Wilt thou whose will is large and spatious,
Not once vouchsafe to hide my will in thine,
Shall will in others seeme right gracious,
And in my will no faire acceptance shine:
The sea all water,yet receiues raine still,
And in aboundance addeth to his store,
So thou beeing rich in Will adde to thy Will,
One will of mine to make thy large Will more.
  Let no vnkinde,no faire beseechers kill,
  Thinke all but one,and me in that one Will.
 

IF thy soule check thee that I come so neere,
Sweare to thy blind soule that I was thy Will,
And will thy soule knowes is admitted there,
Thus farre for loue, my loue-sute sweet fullfill.
Will, will fulfill the treasure of thy loue,
I fill it full with wils,and my will one,
In things of great receit with ease we prooue.
Among a number one is reckon'd none.
Then in the number let me passe vntold,
Though in thy stores account I one must be,
For nothing hold me,so it please thee hold,
That nothing me,a some-thing sweet to thee.
  Make but my name thy loue,and loue that still,
  And then thou louest me for my name is Will.
 

[Light-of-Truth]

Allisnum2er, Yann, I know you saw the Bacon acrostic in the first emblem. Maybe you are waiting for someone else to notice, which I did immediately. 😉

Both the Alpha and Omega, the first and last emblems have Bacon acrostics. You highlighted the last and I did too, but the first is in our face as well. I highlighted the ones I think primary, but anyone can see more. In fact, like the Sonnets and First Folio, these Emblems begin and end with Bacon's name, F BACON.

The Cornucopia is an Emblem of the Affluence of all things necessary to human Life.

With Bacon's works as Bacon and his works as Shakespeare, I'd say there is a combined concept that contains all things necessary for healthy prosperous human life. Bacon's works were our Cornucopia. Not Bacon alone, or Shakespeare alone, but both coming from Francis Bacon.

Be sure to read above the FIG. 2. Academia: A C A D E M Y.

"the refining of Notions by Experiments :"

May not be a cipher, but we know who this comes from. It's as important as the cipher hints and is plain text. BACON.

Mather Walker: "The Academy of Love's Labour's Lost":

Plato founded the Academy in 387 B.C. It became famous throughout the civilized world. It was finally closed by the emperor Justinian in 526 A.D., having been in operation for over 900 years, and was the origin and model for countless later institutions of learning, especially during the renaissance.

Hi Rob, regarding THE WILL as the last Emblem , this is a great find of Glen Alexander. He just missed the possibility that it could be not only WILL SHAKE-SPEARE but also WILL TUDOR.

By the way, you also made a great find with "TUDOR" in the text

Indeed, I had seen the "F(eet).Bac(k) on" but as the deadline was short for me to share with you my take on the Book right in time for the 23rd of April , I had to make choices and I did not take the time to analyse the text further.

There is far more to find in this book. Take the Emblem 157 ... What is the meaning of the rainbow between the TWINS and the WHITE BULL ?

Is it a reference to GEMINI and TAURUS constellations or is it something else ?

The white Bull is a refence to ZEUS and EUROPA, the same zeus who transformed himself into a Swan for the love of Leda who gave birth to CASTOR AND POLLUX !

Page 58 the simple cipher of JOHN DEE and the "De furtivis" cipher of BACON

Europa is one of the Emblem of the Book.

But the emblem is not at the right place. Why ?

There is more to explore.😉

Is there an image we should see?

BTW, so far I really like the Calendar. 😉

Even if Bacon did not do it. If he did, even better!

Hi Rob , I really like the Calender too ! 🙂 I don't know why the image did not show up . I edited my post ! Now the image should be visible 😉 

[Allisnum2er]

Regarding the Emblem 157 of the Book, I told you that the White Bull was a reference to the myth of Zeus and Europa.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_(consort_of_Zeus)

"While Europa and her helpers were gathering flowers, she saw the bull, caressed his flanks, and eventually got onto his back. Zeus took that opportunity and ran to the sea and swam, with her on his back, to the island of Crete. He then revealed his true identity, and Europa became the first queen of Crete. Zeus gave her a necklace made by Hephaestus and three additional gifts: the bronze automaton guard Talos, the hound Laelaps who never failed to catch his quarry, and a javelin that never missed."

Europe is the Emblem 185.

On this Emblem appears, an Owl on a Book. 

The Owl is a symbol of Wisdom , being one of the symbols of MINERVA, the spear-shaker, who was Francis Bacon's Muse.

What if this Owl on the book was a reference to SHAKE-SPEARE'S FIRST FOLIO ?

I don't know if it is what was intended by the authors of Iconologia (1709), but the connection with the 185th page of the First Folio is very interesting ! 🙂 

 

https://internetshakespeare.uvic.ca/Library/facsimile/book/Bran_F1/185/index.html%3fzoom=1200.html

Here is the proof that "the pound of mans flesh taken from a man" is "a pound of BACON" aka WILL TUDOR !

Notice that the simple cipher of Abram is 33, and that its Kaye cipher is 111.

BACON = FREE = ABRAM  = 33 (Simple cipher)

BACON = FREE = ABRAM = 111 (Kaye cipher)

By the way, the word "man" in "the pound of mans flesh taken from a man"  is the 100th word.

And 100 is the simple cipher of FRANCIS BACON !

"Europe" should be with the 3 other continents "Africa", "Asia" and "America".

But "Europe" has been replaced by "Death" an Emblem depicting a skeleton with a Mask !

I am not sure of its hidden meaning.

Could it be seen like "the Mask of Death" in the meaning of a "feigned" death ?

Let me know what you think.

In any event, "Europe" leads us to the page 53 of Iconologia (1703).

And 53 is a very important and well known number making the connection between BACON and SHAKE-SPEARE.

Very strange, and obvious that Europe is replaced with Death. Why??

Africa, Asia, Death, and America. Death is holding a Mask. An obvious curtain behind, with the letter "N" in our face lower right.

Splendid !!! Thank you Rob ! This is another great find ! 😃

Here is a first take on Wither's Emblem 53 ...

And the Title of this Emblem "By seeming other than thou art, thou dost performe a foolish part. " allows to connect the whole with the 211th page of the First Folio

https://internetshakespeare.uvic.ca/Library/facsimile/book/Bran_F1/211/index.html%3fzoom=1200.html

[Light-of-Truth]

Foole is 53 Simple using the 26 letters codes. 😉

But also 102 Kaye with Bacon's 24 letter alphabet.

"Musicall Spheares speak" is an anagram of "I Pull Shakespeare scams."

The rest of the page is all about Fools...

🙂

Here are some ideas regarding the Sonnet 53.

VVHat is your substance,whereof are you made,
     That millions of strange shaddowes on you tend?
Since euery one,hath euery one,one shade,
And you but one,can euery shaddow lend:

And you in euery blessed shape we know.
    In all externall grace you haue some part,
    But you like none,none you for constant heart.

I remind you that GRACE = BACON = 33 (TT) (simple cipher)

                              GRACE = BACON = 92 (Reverse cipher)

[Light-of-Truth]

You know on page 53 of the Sonnets, Sonnet 116 is mis-numbered 119.

I have a LOT To say about that and where it is in the collection, but on my way to bed to sleep and dream...

[Allisnum2er]

The Emblem 211 "DEATH" led me to the page 211 of "The Taming of the Shrew"

A passage of this page talking about "Minerva" immediatly caught my attention.

Minerva ,the Goddess of Wisdom, called the Spear shaker, was Francis Bacon's Muse.

Indeed, in this passage, we may hear Minerva speak and reveal us the truth about the identity of the Author !

The Emblem 185 : EUROPE shares one important similarity with the last Emblem 326 :The WILL

https://archive.org/details/iconologiaormora00ripa/page/162/mode/2up?view=theater

I decided to decipher the text of the figure 185, and here is what I found ...

About the word Principal : https://www.etymonline.com/word/principal

 

Then I decided to analyse the page where was the Emblem 185.

I noticed that the Emblem 185 was on page 47 .

An idea popped in my head : " 47 is 74 in reverse, and 74 is the simple cipher of both WILLIAM and TUDOR".

At the same time, it reminded me the mis-numbered page 49 (47) of HISTORIES (First Folio - 1623) in which F.BACO can be found in acrostic.

And I also remembered that 49 was the simple cipher of WIT or WTI (hiding William Tudor I).

So, I decided to analyse this page 49 and here is what I found ...

Then I took a look to the text of the Emblem 186 that is next to the Emblem 185, and represents a Judge or Lawyer.

Ver is Latin for Truth.

Oxfordian will probably use this to tell us that De Vere is involved, but De Vere was not a Lawyer, Bacon was !

The message tells us :  F. BACON - Double Truth

The inverted "u" of Truth is also vey interesting.

Indeed, the Kaye cipher of TRNTH is 102.

And thanks to the work of  Rob , Light-of-Truth we know that :

ONE HUNDRED TWO = WILLIAM TUDOR I = FRA ROSI CROSSE

I discovered another  interesting connection between the Emblems on page 47 of Iconologia (1709) and the First Folio.

Pages 185 and 186 of the First Folio correspond to the 102th leaf.

Page 187 and 188 of the First Folio correspond to the 103th leaf.

 

What a surprise on pages 186 and 187 !!!

"As wit and fortune will"

Notice on page 187  the WTITW in a Janus-like configuration, that is confirmed by the figure of old man / young man.

And 33 = BACON (simple cipher) confirms us that FRANCIS BACON aka WILLIAM TUDOR I was JANUS, the Two-Headed God.

 

But there is much more on this page 187 ...

 

And page 163 of the First Folio is a page well known by the Baconians.

Wow!!

Synchronicity is amazing right now and you are one of the Cosmic weavers!

Had just got off the phone with my elderly very nice yet naive farmer girl "Christian" mother up in Michigan. She was saying her favorite thing when talking about getting old referring to my Dad who is older with more medical problems than her but enjoying his life fully. "I'm not afraid to die, I would stop eating if I were him." It's ridiculous and I always state my mind that he is happy and loving life, why would he want to die. She told me I need to read the Bible. Ooops. I told her I do and have a copy of the original KJV facsimile and links to the same. "Bacon edited it with his Rosicrucian brothers containing the centuries of secret ancient Knowledge turning it into a masterpiece of the English language." But she has the modern version where much is removed and became upset telling me that "There is ONLY ONE Bible and you need to read it!" LOL

We've been there before. Sad, but she is a sheep like most of the masses. Nice, lives as a Christian, but a blind follower being lead wherever her church decides, usually based on their donations and potential donations aligned with political and social trends that are most profitable.

Also you brought up the letter "H" which I kept seeing in places I knew were important and thought to myself, "Yann said something about the H." Thanks for reminding me Ben Jonson called H the "The Mother Queen" of consonants! Great reminder without having to dig too much. Exactly what I was looking for. I can barely retain what I say, so it takes me a while to remember new stuff. But I am learning so much lately and it is great!

And of course, "Fortune" which has been on my mind.

All your work is amazing, opens new threads to follow. You are beyond "Surface" collecting, may be beyond "Intuitive" collecting. Another level I can strive for. 🙂

Thank you Yann! Allisnum2er!! Your potential is unlimited!
