It seems there is no curse. Curst may mean perverse. By using per verse, so it proves to be. The name William Shakespeare does not appear. It is, however, given in the Epitaph, in fact twice, for those who understand. Such an omission, interestingly, is shared by John Keats, the poet! This book deals with the authorship of the works attributed to William Shakespeare, Benjamin Jonson and others. Francis Bacon, Benjamin Jonson, Sir Walter Raleigh, a lost king and many other persons receive attention. In particular, Queen Elizabeth I, supposedly a Virgin Queen, is covered with Robert Dudley. New light is thrown on history. Are the Tudors alive and well?
