MM:
I'm sure God will give you credit for defending the Ever-Living Poet.
Thanks.

It's really amazing how people try to install Edward de Vere, William
Stanley, and a host of others on Shakespeare's throne. His extern'
was honored. Nobody is even close to him, with the exceptions of
Francis Bacon and Countess of Pembroke, Mary Sidney Herbert. Both
wrote their own works. Francis Bacon even advised us to honor thy
predecessors, or you would repent in the end.

If his extern' was honored, then OBVIOUSLY, everybody knew him. They
knew his identity. It was William Shakespeare of Stratford, a.k.a.
pleasant Willie, according to Edmund Spenser. It was only after 150
years, that some decided to fantasize, and Anti-Stratfordianism was
born. It would never have been considered earlier.
