io8 FRANCIS BACON'S CRYPTIC RHYMES with ready wit, as the judge described by the lawyer Bacon. The final lines of the first scene in "Loves Labour s Lost " abound similarly with internal rhymes, and yet the rhyme at the very end is omitted ; the Clown Costard utters the words : Welcome the sour cup of prosperity ! Affliction may one day smile again ; and till then, Sit thee down, sorrow ! In the play, the sentences are printed in prose, though in reality, they are rhymed similarly to the rhymes in that Anecdote ; only in this case the move ment is downwards : Welcome the sour cup of prosperity ! Affliction may one day smile again; and till then, down, sorrow ! Sit thee Wherever superstition and prophecy are touched upon, (later on we shall quote more detailed instances), Bacon, true to the childlike belief, introduces rhyme, even though it be in the middle of a sentence, and nothing else rhyme in the anecdote ; thus, for instance, in the little story about Pope Julius and one of his protege's : That he had lound by astrology that it was the youth's destiwy to be a great prelate. Similarly in the scene between "two noblemen" quizzing each other . \ Well, I and_yo, against any two of them.
FRANCIS BACON'S CRYPTIC RHYMES 109 And now back again to the longer chains of rhymes. After the defeat of Cyrus the younger, Falinus was sent by the King to the Grecians, (who had for their part rather victory than otherwise) to command them to yield their arms. Which when it was denied, Falinus said to Clearchus ; Well then, the King lets you know, that if you remove from the place where you are now encamped, it is war : if you stay, it is truce. What shall I say you will do ? Clearchus answered, It pleaseth us as it pleaseth the King. How is that? saith Falinus. Saith Clearchus, If we remove, war : if we stay> truce. And so would not disclose his purpose. The rhyme sets in, the moment question and answer begin : Well then, the King lets you know, That if you remove from the place where you are now encamp'd, it is war : If you stay, it is truce. What shall I say you Clearchus answer'd, It pleaseth us as it pleaseth the King. How is that ? saith Falinus. Saith Clearchus, If we remove, war: if we stay, truce. would not disclose his purpose. will do ? And so The principal rhyme, which runs through the whole, is "know-do-so"; "do," of course, rhymed both to words of O- and of U -sounds, and there are instances of "do " being pronounced more like o than u. Lines two and three show the same form and disposition of verse as "The world's a bubble." In the fourth line we have the internal rhymes "stay-say." Then the same rhyming words as we heard before, " war " and " stay " are repeated, in a long line, as internal rhymes to " are," " war," " stay," " say " above. A short final rhyme concludes the verses.
