Foreword
The only mention of Iceland in the First Folio of 1623 is found in the following line in Henry V, Act II, Sc. i: Pish for thee, Island dogge: thou prickeard cur of Island (Cipher Value 23294). In the context of Saga-Shakespeare Myth the rowdy vulgarity of the scene itself, a mention therein of Base Tyke, and its final words – flashing fire will follow – can be viewed as clues to the Cipher Value‘s decomposition as follows:
10338 = The Devil‘s Bed and Bolster – Shakespeare Myth
8856 = Money-Power-Sex – Associated concepts
4000 = Flaming Sword – As in flashing fire
100 = The End

¹A new breed of men sent down from heaven.
(Virgil, Fourth Eclogue)
Ultima Cumaei venit iam carminis aetas;
Magnus ab integro saeclorum nascitur ordo.
Iam redit et Virgo, redeunt Saturnia regna,
Iam nova progenies caelo demittitur alto.
Tu modo nascenti puero, quo ferrea primum
Desinet ac toto surget gens aurea mundo,
Casta fave Lucina: tuus iam regnat Apollo.
Teque adeo decus hoc aevi te consule, inibit,
Pollio, et incipient magni procedere menses;
Te duce, si qua manent sceleris vestigia nostri,
Inrita perpetua solvent formidine terras.
Ille deum vitam accipiet divisque videbit
Permixtos heroas et ipse videbitur illis
Pacatumque reget patriis virtutibus orbem.
Translation
Now the last age by Cumae’s Sibyl sung has come and gone, and the majestic roll of circling centuries begins anew: justice returns, returns old Saturn’s reign, with a new breed of men sent down from heaven. Only do thou, at the boy’s birth in whom the iron shall cease, the golden race arise, befriend him, chaste Lucina; ‘tis thine own Apollo reigns. And in thy consulate, this glorious age, O Pollio, shall begin, and the months enter on their mighty march. Under thy guidance, whatso tracks remain of our old wickedness, once done away, shall free the earth from never-ceasing fear. He shall receive the life of gods, and see heroes with gods commingling, and himself be seen of them, and with his father’s worth reign o’er a world of peace.
