SHAKSPERE-BACON'S CIPHER.
| I DOUBT it not—then more, far more; |
| In each old song bequeath'd—in every noble page or text, |
(Different—something unreck'd before—some unsuspected
author,)
|
In every object, mountain, tree, and star—in every birth and
life,
|
As part of each—evolv'd from each—meaning, behind the os-
tent,
|
| A mystic cipher waits infolded. |
