Shaisespeare's Name.

1t has often been Il puzzle to students
of Shakespeare why his name is spelled
i'll so many different ways. Shakespeare
himself is said to have signed his name
on different occasions 'Shakspeare" and
"Shakespere, and learned disquisitions
have been written to prove which is the
proper spelling. None perhaps was more
amusing than the weather" reason
given in 1851 by Albert Smith, who
averred that he had found it in the Har-
leian MSS. 1t was as follows:
How dyd Shakespeare spell hys name2
Yc woathcrre maybe ye change, we sayo,
So writo it as ye please;
When yo sCnno shone he maybe hys A,
When wette he took hys E'cs.
