1t has been a question in dispute as
to which play of Shakespeare's was first
written. John Dryden said it was
'Pericles," but the probability leans to
Titus Andronicus'' as the first. Ben
Jonson is quoted to prove this. Shakes
peare came to London, it is said, in
1887 and not long after his arrival as
Jonson states, Titus Andronicus" was
produced. There was great intimacy be-
tween these two poets. Shakespeare was
the cause of Jonson's first play being
placed on the stage. Johnson wrote of
his great friend: II love the man, and
do honour his memory, on this side
idolatry, as much as any" In his famous
Elegy, ITO the Memory of his beloved
Master William Shakespeare" he calls
him Gentle Shakespeare. and Sweet
Swan of Avon" And yet the fools in the
last century discovered that Francis
Bacon, who never wrote line of genuine
poetry in verse form, was the author of
the greatest, highest productions OF hui
