speaker_0NARRATOR
Repeated references to the word hog and the presence of cryptographic statements on page thirty-three of various contemporary writings demonstrate that the keys to Bacon's ciphers were his own name, words playing upon it, or its numerical equivalent.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Notable examples are the famous statement of Mistress Quickly in The Merry Wives of Windsor, "Hang-hog is Latin for Bacon, I warrant you," the title pages of the Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia and Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queene, and the emblems appearing in the works of Alciatus and Wither.
speaker_0NARRATOR
A Baconian signature from Alciati Emblemata.

Master Fang,
Kathryn HarkupGUEST
He just saw the external effects and wrote about them beautifully in many cases.
Philip RoweHOST
I'm reminded when you're talking there about the scene where Mistress Quickly is describing the death of Falstaff.
Philip RoweHOST
That seems exactly the situation.
Philip RoweHOST
And it's a very poignant scene.

Philip RoweHOST
You should be able to find a copy of it in your local bookshop, but I've put links in the show notes to the online retailers and to the publisher's website too.
Philip RoweHOST
In case you were wondering, that reference to the sweating sickness that neither Catherine or I could remember in the moment when we were recording is from Measure for Measure, where Mistress Overdone, bemoaning her lack of trade, says, Thus, what with the war, and what with the sweat, and with the gallows, and what with poverty, I'm custom shrunk.
Philip RoweHOST
Although, as with Falstaff's final sickness, which is referred to as the sweat by Mistress Quickly, and in the epilogue to Henry IV Part II, it is debated if this refers to the sweating sickness specifically, or just to a type of fever from a chill that could take a person off very easily at that time.
Philip RoweHOST
I also did a quick bit of research, as in I asked the internet, who had the most deaths in their work between Ian Fleming, Shakespeare and Agatha Christie.

ExpatriateNARRATOR
And as a matter of fact, it is precisely where the comedy of Henry IV, Part II is in setting and externals most Johnsonian that Shakespeare first becomes himself again.
ExpatriateNARRATOR
The tavern scene where Falstaff dines with Mistress Quickly and Doll Tearsheet, that trick of name Shakespeare may very well have taken from Jonson, may offend our modern pretenses of refinement.
ExpatriateNARRATOR
It is nevertheless superb.
ExpatriateNARRATOR
Quite how superb we can only realize at the end when it is plain that Shakespeare has achieved the miracle of carrying a thread of true sentiment clean through the scene without even a momentary discord.
Matt RogersADVERTISER

Bowen YangADVERTISER
Kewpie, the original Japanese mayonnaise.
ExpatriateNARRATOR
In the first it is Mistress Quickly, in the second Mistress Quickly and Pistol, in the third Justice Shallow, who set the pace and give the tone.
ExpatriateNARRATOR
Sir John's presence is rather felt than manifested.
