Marlowe AKA Shake-speare AKA E de Vere, "Dead shepherd, now I find thy saw of might: Who E. Vere loved that loved not at first sight?"

Act 5 scene 1 contains one of two appearance of a character named William. Here William is an uneducated country boy who thinks himself a rival to Touchstone for the hand of Audrey. TOUCHSTONE Give me your hand. Art thou learned? WILLIAM No, sir. TOUCHSTONE Then learn this of me: TO HAVE IS TO HAVE. For it is a figure in rhetoric that drink, being poured out of a cup into a glass, by filling the one doth empty the other. For all your writers do consent that ipse is “he.” Now, you are not ipse, for I am he. "to have is to have" in Shakespeare's beloved Italian is "avere e avere" which is a pun on the family motto of the Vere family. Touchstone (Shakespeare) is telling William that no matter who gets credit, it is "a vere" who really deserves it.
