This book describes in detail the ground-breaking discovery of William Shakespeare’s true identity. Recent scientific investigation, based on empirical evidence, proves beyond all reasonable doubt that not only did Edward de Vere personally admit to having written Sonnet 76 – therefore by extension all the sonnets – but Thomas Nashe confirmed its truth in the same sonnet by adding his own name to de Vere’s. It was to set an example other poets followed. They too concealed Shakespeare’s identity in works of their own. Ben Jonson did so three times. His poem at the front of the First Folio declares de Vere was Shakespeare. On the inscription beneath Shakespeare’s bust at Stratford-upon-Avon, Jonson vows that de Vere was Shakespeare, and should be tested to prove it. He also called the man whose bust it is, a disreputable scamp. Thirdly, the verse on this man’s gravestone below the bust reaffirms Vere’s penname as W.S. Thomas Nashe, for a second time, using his pamphlet Strange Newes, maintained de Vere should be tested privately to prove he was Shakespeare. Edmund Spenser was another poet privy to the secret. He allowed de Vere to express his own name as the mysterious Ignoto: the otherwise unknown poet who wrote praising the Faerie Queene. Thomas Thorpe’s Dedication to the Sonnets in 1609 is asyntactic, because it is a cryptogram. In the space of 144 letters it admits to being de Vere’s epigram; that the sonnets were all by Vere; and Henry Wriothesley is named, together with a Latin appendix revealing his identity as the youth of the sonnets. When the Sonnets were reprinted 40 years later by John Benson, it included a poem by William Marshall. He asserted de Vere was the true poet; and so did Leonard Digges’ eulogy praising Shake-speare, but which secretly confirmed it was Edward de Vere. To these are added Benson’s letter to the reader of Shakespeare’s poems. The letter secretly names both de Vere and Mary Sidney on the occasion they entertained King James at her home in Wilton House. To add to these, in 1658 Sir Aston Cokaine wrote a poem dedicated to William Dugdale, whose volume on Warwickshire antiquities included a picture of the Stratford Monument exposing Shakespeare as a wool merchant. Cokaine’s poem, appearing in Small Poems of Divers Sort, also assured readers of de Vere’s penname. The force of argument from the foregoing assertions that Edward de Vere wrote the works of Shakespeare is because the science of cryptography is satisfied that the keys for decipherment corroborate the subject matter they reveal. These keys never vary. They either relate to the title heading of the open text, or the name of Edward de Vere and the number of his earldom, 17. Furthermore each cluster of hidden text also has a key locating where it is to be found, thus allaying suspicions of disbelief. Moreover, every encipherment is accompanied by the code word ‘rune’. Its archaic definition was “Whisper, secret talk, or Whisper talk in secret”. The probability that this code word, so apt, has appeared by chance in all nine ciphers, is 8.84 x 10 -11. To combine this probability value with that of de Vere’s name also appearing in each of the nine ciphers, stretches the imagination to a number far greater than winning the jackpot of the British or US lottery on four separate occasions. When de Vere’s name appeared in Sonnet 76 as its author: confirmed by Tom Nashe, he must have also written that sonnet. But if he wrote one sonnet, he must have written all the sonnets. In that case he must have been the Shakespeare who wrote the plays attributed to that name. Hence, Edward de Vere was William Shakespeare. QED. The affirmation of Nashe, Jonson, Spenser, Digges, Marshall, Cokayne and publishers Thorpe and Benson support the same conclusion. The reason for the secrecy was a matter of national security, and completely consistent with the known historical facts of that time.
