{ Francis Bacon's Sonnets }
Welcome
"The Immortal Bard" Francis Bacon was Liverpool's Parliamentary Representative in the year of the great crises of 1588, when the Spanish Armada invaded England. A further encounter with Spain was anticipated in the Spring of 1589.
"He sat for Liverpool, and his rising importance is now attended by the frequent appearance of his name in the Journals."
Prof. T. Fowler

Every Liverpool man should be proud of the man who signed himself "William Shake-Speare."
The Alfred Dodd Edition of Shake-Speare's Sonnets.
This Little Poetic Diary of William Shake-Speare is intended to live for all time; to creep into the schools, the universities, the homes of the world; to undermine all the outdoor positions; to focus scholarly thought on the problems to the Elizabethan Era; to create a true Shakespearian Revival; to instal the Solomon of his Age in the Master's Chair of the Immortals...the Temple of Apollo; and to vindicate for ever the character of the Author, Francis Bacon.
Alfred Dodd, 31/3/1931

A previous Francis Bacon Society Member, maintains a well-developed and constantly updated Web site since 1997 {www.sirbacon.org}. Lawrence runs his beliefs parallel to Alfred Dodd’s concept, that “there is, moreover, a greater mystery in Francis Bacon’s life than such biographers ever dreamed, a hidden life, the life of a man who was building great bases for Eternity to the glory of God and the good of humanity.”
According to Lawrence, an interesting approach to prove if Bacon and Essex were the sons of Queen Elizabeth I., would be to obtain tmDNA samples from the bones of Queen Elizabeth I., and also from Bacon. Personally, being a Baconian since childhood, I find this a challenging venture to all scientists who would be willing to append their results to British History.
Many should delve into four important matters; one, The Northumberland Manuscript; two, the White Hart Inn scenes at St. Albans; three, obtaining tmDNA samples from the bones of Queen Elizabeth I., and also from Bacon; four, the investigation of Pott’s Promus.

It is noted that Coke spoke of Francis Bacon’s Great Instauration as “it deserves not to be read in schools, but to be freighted in the Ship of Fools.”

About the A.A.'s
This ornament placed at the head of the Sonnets in the Quarto is a specimen of Rosicrosse Symbolism. The light A and dark A design is one of a family of head pieces (fourteen in all) peculiar to books with which the Rosicrosse Literary Society had some connection, especially in the latter part of the 16th and early 17th Centuries.
They are to be found in Francis Bacon's works, Shake-Speare's poems, even the James' Bible, the same blocks being used in different books by different printers far apart. They were supplied by a central organization of which Francis Bacon was the head.
This particular emblem is not to be found in any other book. It is a variation of one used for the first time by John Baptist Porta, the first book to be written on cipher writing, in the reprint of 1591.
