¹ The 26 years between the date of the Privy Council’s letter on behalf of Christopher Marlowe, 29 June 29, 1587, and the burning of The Globe, 29 June, 1613 yield the Cipher Value 2904 + 1587 + 2904 + 1613 = 9008. The number 26 resides in the Hebrew gematria value of JHWH/10-5-6-5 and 26 years are used to denote The Cycle of Moses.
Together with the Stratfordian’s “houre vpon the stage” as defined by Shakspere’s baptismal and burial dates (2602 + 1564 + 2502 + 1616 = 8284), the Cycle of Moses number yields the Cipher Sum 9008 + 8284 = 17292. In turn, this corresponds to the Cipher Sum 17252 + 40 = 17292, where 17252 = Gulielmus filius Johannes Shakspere, and 40 = Years of Moses in the Wilderness.
And, as it happens, in “Ode to the Royal Society” by Abraham Cowley (1618-1667; a leading English poet of the 17th century) Francis Bacon is likened to Moses as follows:
15954 = Bacon, like Moses, led us forth at last,
14024 = The barren wilderness he past,
11611 = Did on the very border stand
10762 = Of the blest promis’d land,
21661 = And from the mountain’s top of his exalted wit,
15154 = Saw it himself, and shew’d us it.
89166
As in 9008 + 8284 + 89166 + 11850 + 11000 = 129308, where the last two Cipher Values are those of the two characters of Brennu-Njálssaga who are expressly associated with Advent of Christianity in Iceland: Höskuldr Hvítanessgoði, 11850, and law-speaker Þorgeirr Tjörvason, 11000, who proclaimed Christianity law of the land in 1000 A.D. The larger Cipher Sum is that of the challenging text under the Shakspere shrine in Holy Trinity Church in Stratford:
19949 = STAY PASSENGER WHY GOEST THOU BY SO FAST
22679 = READ IF THOU CANST WHOM ENVIOUS DEATH HATH PLAST
24267 = WITH IN THIS MONUMENT SHAKSPEARE: WITH WHOME
20503 = QUICK NATURE DIDE WHOSE NAME DOTH DECK YS TOMBE
20150 = FAR MORE THEN COST: SIEH ALL YT HE HATH WRITT
21760 = LEAVES LIVING ART BUT PAGE TO SERVE HIS WITT
129308
² 37575 is the Cipher Value of a text inscribed on the façade of St. Peter’s Basilica to mark its “completion” in 1612:
23501 = IN HONOREM PRINCIPIS APOST PAVLVS V BVRGHESIVS
14074 = ROMANVS PONT. MAX. AN. MDCXII PONT. VII.³
37575
³Paul V Borghèse, pape, a fait ceci en l’an 1612, en l’honneur du prince des apôtres.
