ANNOUNCEMENT.
THE BI-LITERAL CYPHER OF FRANCIS BACON,
Deciphered by Elizabeth Wells Gallup.
THIRD EDITION
This edition embraces decipherings from the commencement of the useof Bacon’s Cipher inventions—now found to be 1579—and covering theentire period of his literary career, including some works published byRawley subsequent to 1626. The Cypher has been traced with certaintydown to 1651.
This Bi-literal Cypher reveals much secret history concerningQueen Elizabeth, who, it is now learned, was the wedded wife of Robert,Earl of Leicester—while posing as the Virgin Queen—and was the motherof 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, withinstructions by which they may be deciphered to disclose other hiddendramatical and historical productions of larger importance and greaterhistorical accuracy than those upon the printed pages which enfoldthem. These are found also to contain secret history, dangerous toBacon, who sought by this means to transmit it to a future time inwhich he hoped the Ciphers would be discovered and the truth proclaimed.
The method of the Word Cipher is shown in the deciphered Tragedyof Anne Boleyn, published simultaneously with this ThirdEdition,—also in the Tragedy of Robert, Earl of Essex,—and theTragedy of Mary, Queen of Scots.
