ref Hamlet:
Purely for the sake of interest, here's a little trick involving the two characters Francisco and Barnardo. They are the two guards who open the play, and we know that although Francisco is on guard duty, Barnaordo makes the challenge etc. In other words, right at the very first line something is confused or mixed up. The confusion will continue in the character of Hamlet throughout the play.
Here's the trick:
The two names FRANCISCO and BARNARDO make FRANCIS BACON ROARD.
The word roar'd is a valid Elizabethan spelling, and the apostrophe is assumd.
* Most things involving Sir Francis Bacon come in doubles. *
The letters ROARD also make something else: ADO R R
where ADO refers to the play and R R is an alpha-numeric reference (17 17) to a letter count (dialogue only) in the opening line of the play Much ado, e.g:
Leonato. I LEARNE BY THIS LETT, ....... 17 letters, after immediately meeting a man who roars.
The name Leonato is in fact made from two Latin words:
Leo and nato. The first means Lion, the second means swim.
The letter count uses the number 17, and begins at the first letter of dialogue: the 17 letters counted are: I LEARNE BY THIS LETT
It can be shown that the sum of all the abc values of those 17 letters is 194.
Moreover, it can be shown that if the same is applied to the letters FRANCIS BACON the result is 100. But so is the word SONNETS.
By subtraction 194 minus 100 = 94 and this is a reference to Sonnet 94 which says:
They that haue powre to hurt, and will doe none,
That doe not do the thing, they most do showe,
Who mouing others, are themselues as stone,
Vnmooued, could, and to temptation slow:
They rightly do inherrit heauens graces,
And husband natures ritches from expence,
They are the Lords and owners of their faces,
Others, but stewards of their excellence:
The sommers flowre is to the sommer sweet,
Though to it selfe, it onely liue and die,
But if that flowre with base infection meete,
The basest weed out-braues his dignity:
For sweetest things turne sowrest by their deedes,
Lillies that fester, smell far worse then weeds.
Sonnet 94
If one takes note of the spelling of the word doe and do, and looks at the original play's title in the Folio they would see Much Adoe rather than Much Ado.
Note also that there are two does and two dos.
Remember those two letters R R? R was 17 in the old alphabet.
Counting from the first They we find at 17th (line 2: they) and at 34th (line 5: They) therefore two seventeens are used.
The sequence of seventeens breaks down at the 51st count (line 7: owners ), as only began with two letters R R, but where line 6 begins with They, and is correctly in sequence, the same line ends with GRACES, which, according to the same principle of abc numbering, is 51.
Because the number of the name FRANCIS is the same as for the word GRACE it follows that FRANCIS S is the same as GRACES.
Now, the letter S is 18, and Sonnet 18 begins with these three lines:
Shall I compare thee to a Summers day?
Thou art more louely and more temperate:
Rough windes do shake the darling buds of Maie,
And the first letter is also an S.
Counting eighteen letters from that S ( which is 18 ) we land on do (remember do?).
It happens that the number of DO is 18........
Earlier, I said that the name Leonato means Lion swim in Latin. This points to the play Julius Caesar, and his swimming in river.
Although there is a Lioness in the play, this time it's the river which roar'd.
It is possible to show that Sir Francis Bacon hides in this play also, in a similar manner to how he hides in Hamlet.
I could go on to show that all the above is not coincidence but who would really understand it?
Anyone who wishes to verify the above numbers are welcome to download my calculator. It saves much hassle.
