Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Concerning the Bi-Literal Cypher of Francis Bacon, Discovered in His Works: Pros and Cons of the Controversy
This edition embraces decipherings from the commencement of the use of Bacon's Cipher inventions - now found to be 1579 - and covering the entire period of his literary career, including some works published by Rawley subsequent to 1626. The Cypher has been traced with certainty down to 1651.
This Bi-literal Cypher reveals much secret history concerning Queen Elizabeth, who, it is now learned, was the wedded wife of Robert, Earl of Leicester - while posing as the Virgin Queen - and was the mother of Francis Bacon.
It also discloses the existence of a second so-called Key-Word Cipher, of broader scope, running through all of Bacon's literary works, with instructions by which they may be deciphered to disclose other hidden dramatical and historical productions of larger importance and greater historical accuracy than those upon the printed pages which enfold them. These are found also to contain secret history, dangerous to Bacon, who sought by this means to transmit it to a future time in which he hoped the Ciphers would be discovered and the truth proclaimed.
The method of the Word Cipher is shown in the deciphered Tragedy of Anne Boleyn, published simultaneously with this Third Edition, - also in the Tragedy of Robert, Earl of Essex, - and the Tragedy of Mary, Queen of Scots.
