Here’s another beautiful tribute to Edward de Vere, the seventeenth Earl of Oxford (“E.O.”), the true author of the Shakespeare works, from Jesus and Eros: Sonnets, Poems and Songs by Theresa Rodriguez:
A Sonnet for the Sonnet-Maker, E.O.
You know the beats and rhythms, the iamb
Which pulses like a crippled-legged walk;
You, with the force of one who said, “I am
That I am,” in iambs you will talk
Of truth and beauty, pain and sorrow, all
And nothing, touching Heaven and Hell
In what you speak and say, what will recall
The void in the beginning, and will tell
Of voided end, where “Never” ever cries,
And crowns pass to the undeserving fools
And great men metamorphose into lies,
And there we search and find the hidden jewels.
And there a crown you bear the better part,
In five-beat lines you tell us of your heart.
Theresa Rodriguez

Hi Hank,
would you kindly correct the name: “Rodgriquez”.
I have a dream: once I’ll invite all those great people like this lady, to celebrate our victory. Maybe it’ll not take very long.
Thanks, Sandy!
Once again Hank, I am deeply honored and I thank you.
And Sandy, I can’t wait for the victory party!
Theresa,
this is a bit more than mere wishful speaking. If not more, but I can share the fact: probably I’m the first one in the world invited by a real stratfordian Shakespeare Society to deliver a lecture – based on my discoveries on the authorship question.
