I have reinterpreted the phrase "Sweet Swan of Avon" (23:49) as an oath, not a description of the poet. Back in 1609 King James I issued an order to writers, particularly playwrights, to stop using religious oaths in their work. Jonson had already been in trouble a few times over his writing, so he would have been acutely aware that if he did anything more scandalous, it would have meant prison. There is proof in the Folio that religious oaths were removed from plays which suggests that Jonson coined "Sweet Swan of Avon" as an ambiguous oath which could double as a form of praise. The quarto of The Merry Wives of WIndsor, for example, had more than 60 religious oaths which were either removed or changed to less offensive forms in the Folio. W. W. Greg provides a chart of those oaths in page liv of the preface to the 1910 Oxford (how ironic) Press facsimile of The Merry Wives of WIndsor. So why would Jonson use an oath? If you look at the long-s in "sight" later on in the same line, it looks almost identical to the f in "true-filed lines" a mere 3 lines above. When I first read the poem, I saw the long-s as an f, transforming the word into fight. This is what I believe Jonson wanted readers to do because he uses what we would call a proper upper-case s in "Swan" when he could have used the lower-case long-s form. Therefore, readers at the time may have done the same as I did and misread the letter as an f. The "fight" Jonson alludes to is the fight to get the Folio into print. The fight was to collect the unpublished plays, to get investors involved, to include dozens of allusions and puzzles in the book, and to publish it during the Spanish Marriage Crisis where the threat that Prince Charles was about to marry the Spanish Infanta disrupted the lives of so many nobles. Indeed, Henry de Vere was in prison during most of the time the Folio was being prepared for print for his opposition to the marriage. So Ithink Jonson's oath was a sigh of relief that the Folio had finally seen the light of day. One more authorship clue is in the position of the third name Shakespeare: it is on the 34th left-indented line from the beginning, or 17 x 2 lines. And finally, 40 words are in non-italic letters in the poem, not counting the name in brackets since it can be seen as optional. Just some additional discoveries I made for people to ponder.

Really enjoying the videos, Sir. The swan to me is, of course, the constellation Cygnus. My knowledge of Shakespeare is limited but I'm learning. My love for history and specifically the knight templar has surprisingly brought me to Shakespeare. This is the most exciting story of the last 2000 years. I believe stories like the tempest are loose accounts of times in Bacon's life. The tempest is about when john Dee sent him away to an island to practice is magic and alchemy. He was the secret son of Queen Elizabeth. The earl of oxford might have been another one of her bastard children. And I think they both had a bog roll in this as well as sir henry Neille. I think that most of the claims or authorship whoever they maybe are true. If there is anything to tie that person to the Rosicrucian movement then they probably had a hand in Shakespeare. If someone were to come to Bacon and say I want to book in code to also show that they were a part of this, Bacon would have said yes. As long as it did not affect his own codes that were more important and not just about authorship. Bacon codes are star maps. The secret longitude and circumnavigation.

Worth watching. Imagine being clever enough to put six or more subtle clues in one phrase all at the same time? It strains credibility. No? And yet, seemingly, there they all are. Whilst, let's call it the Norwegian school, can find many, many other pieces of evidence, like all those spherical stones on that island in New England. Amazing! Yet, they can't both be true can they? They cancel each other out. I must confess, I worry. Is it possible, in fact, isn't it more likely, that we are reading far, far, far more into much of this than is really there? Are there really six different references in one phrase? Or are we painting them in, as it were, later on because we so want them to be there?

I wonder if Johnson is saying more than we realise with the now infamous quotation 'Sweet Swan of Avon: What a sight it were to see thee in our waters yet appear, And make those flights upon the bank of Thames' It seems to me that he is blatantly stating that the 'Avon' in question is 'upon the bank of Thames', not 'upon the bank of Avon' This has to be Hampden Court, as Alexander states.

Could it be that the bright shining of his mind be due to his having mystically become Apollo the sun? (As in Tibetan tantra a person might become an emanation of a deity) The swan associated with Apollo. If de Vere was involved with initiatic traditions, this identification with deity may have been involved. "You have surpassed yourself..." Do the plays then carry the shining brightness of Apollo? Also that brightness being "the cause of wit in others"?

I should point out the very mysterious reference to Page's (Burghley's) "fallow greyhound" in The Merry Wives of Windsor. Fallow here can have a double meaning. First a pale yellow deer connection...deer and greyhounds? Yes! The calygreyhound has antlers! Secondly a reference to fallow meaning out of use...either a comment on Oxford's retirement OR to the supporter role having been dropped by de Vere in favour of the harpy and boar. Significantly Shallow (Leicester) then goes on to say..."a fair dog; can there be more said? He is good and fair." "Vere" and "fair" would have been pronounced at the time to rhyme.

Two elliptical semibreves kissing on the same line for the symbol of infinity, the end of mensural time. Faire Phyllis is by De Vere.

All that is known for sure about Mr. William Shaksper is that he was born in Stratford Upon-Avon, married and had children, went to London, where he began acting under the stage name Shakespeare, returned to Stratford, made his will, died and was buried. The rest of his life is a blank sheet of paper, not a pen or a book was found in his house. A semi-literate man who could not write his own name could not have written immortal works, so who was the real author of Shakespeare's plays? The first to identify Shakespeare with Giovanni Florio was his enemy Thomas Nashe, who in one thousand five hundred eighty-nine, published in clear letters in the Metaphon that "an Italian pen puts eternity in an actor's mouth.'' What do we know instead about John Florio? About John Florio his whole life and countless works are known, he had a huge culture in all fields, he spoke countless languages and dialects, he translated into English many Italian, Latin Greek, French, and Spanish works bringing much erudition to a country where culture was very scarce. John Florio was a valiant writer; in addition to the works of Shakespeare, he introduced over a thousand new learned words into the English language and produced a dictionary with over one hundred and fifty thousand English terms. No English scholar was equal to such a feat.

@@alexanderwaugh7036 Thank you for your kind reply, I apologize for my bad English but I am not a scholar but merely an amateur of the theater. Here I report only what eminent scholars have discovered in their careful research by authoritative researchers such as Frances A. Yates, Saul Gerevini, Michael Delahoyde of the Shakespeare Oxford Fellowship and many other members whose names I cannot remember all. The story begins around the 1920s when a researcher finds in an Italian library a book entitled "Tutti Frutti." In this book there are endless locutions that the actor Shakespeare later re-enacts on stage. It could not be plagiarism because the book had been written fifty years before Shakespeare's birth. This discovery prompted the search for the book's author-Michelangelo Florio. Among the researchers was John Harding and then his daughter Julia. The studies ended due to the catastrophic events that followed that period. In Brief: Today we know with certainty that Michelangelo Florio was born in Tuscany in 1518, a man of encyclopedic and linguistic learning. Unfortunately, his ideas conflicted with those of the Catholic Church, and he was imprisoned as a heretic, but in 1550 he escaped by taking refuge in London. Because of his great learning he was immediately hired at the court of King Edward VI as tutor to English noble scions, including the future Queen Victoria. Michelangelo marries and Giovanni (John) is born in 1553. In 1554 with the accession to the throne of Mary the Bloody, the family fled to Soglio, a village in the Chiavenna Valley. His father educates him and his mother teaches him English. John studies at many Italian and foreign universities, learning many languages and dialects. Queen Elizabeth I comes to the throne and the Florio family returns to London. Giovanni becomes the right-hand man and secretary to Queen Elizabeth. On the other hand, the fact that he was Italian, his enormous culture, his literary background, his social intelligence, and his friendships of the highest order aroused resentment among many. Thomas Nashe also made ruthless attacks on him because Florio promoted, to the Earl of Southampton, the protection of a young man from Stratford-on-Avon, County Warwick, rather than that of Nashe himself. This young man would become "Shakespeare" in everyone's eyes. It is interesting that Florio favored, at the Earl of Southampton, an unknown man with no university training, even uncultured (as his contemporary and friend Ben Jonson), rather than a "Wit" like Nashe. One finds corpulent traces of what I say in some of Thomas Nashe's writings and in Florio's writings, as well as in other writings. The story goes on but it is much longer and space is short here.

For a time I was of the opinion that Edward DeVere was the true author of the Shakespeare plays. One day I asked the drama coach Michael Cadmon what he thought. He was of the opinion that Edward DeVere, though an excellent poet, was not of Shakespeare's caliber. After that my research led me to the Sir Thomas Moore play and Hand D. You can clearly see that there is a close similarity between the Shakespeare signatures and Hand D. When you look at the handwriting of Edward DeVere, which was so beautiful, there is no similarity whatsoever. There are undoubtedly many clues about the hand behind the hand namely Edward DeVere. He started the first theatre in London at Blackfriars and was so supportive, perhaps at the behest and 1000 pound sterling, of Queen Elizabeth. How much he influenced the plays at this point in time is very difficult to say. Perhaps he proferred his own experiences in Italy or his library to Shakespeare. Also we now believe, from computer analysis that Shakespeare worked cooperatively with other playrights, like Marlowe. I can certainly see where the confusion lies when the original plays themselves have disappeared. Ben Johnson offered us a peek behind the curtain at the man who created a wonderment for the ages.

The six signatures of William Shaksper don't match each other. Even if they did, and you could prove from them that his is Hand D, which you can't, you still could not prove that he composed what was written. Hand D is pretty much desperation for those who are trying to explain away the fact that there are no letters or papers or anything in the hand of Shakespeare, much less anyone who actually claimed to know him during his lifetime.

Daniel, you will want to look more thoroughly at the recent analysis and commentary of Hand D; it does not point to Shakespeare. Devere was acclaimed by contemporaries as among the best for comedies (though mysteriously none are available in his name), and the earlier poetry during his youth before his pen-name is in line of development with his later more mature poetry.
