56 FRANCIS BACON'S CRYPTIC RHYMES My soul is in the sky : Tongue, lose thy light ; Moone, take thy flight : [Evit Moonshine.'] Now die, die, die, die, die. \_Dies.~\ These are all pure rhymes, "pap-hop "being chosen on purpose on account of its extravagance, enhanced by the words being wedded to rhyme. But not only to express the coarse jest of the artisan is the it rhyme employed, is also used in the most dashing conversational tone. We need but recall the scene in Love's Labours Lost (ii. 2) in which Berowne " " (spelt Biron in modern editions) speaks to his beloved Rosaline of his love-sick heart. We hear the witty elegant courtier bartering word and rhyme with the maid of honour : Alack, let it blood. ROSALINE. BEROWNE. Would that do good ? ROSALINE. My physic says ay. BEROWNE. Will you prick't with your eye ? ROSALINE. No point, with my knife. BEROWNE. Now, God save thy life. ROSALINE. And yours from long living ! I BEROWNE. cannot stay thanksgiving.
FRANCIS BACON'S CRYPTIC RHYMES 57 This is followed immediately by the ensuing dialogue between Berowne and the French courtier Boyet : BEROWNE. What's her name in the cap ? BOYET. Rosaline, by good hap. BEROWNE. Is she wedded or no ? BOYET. To her will, sir, or so. BEROWNE. You are welcome, sir : adieu. BOYET. Farewell to me, sir, and welcome to you. [Exit BEROWNE.] At times the poet's delight in rhyming is displayed in a series of homophone rhymes. When Oberon, in A Midsummer- Nighfs Dream, king of the fairies, drops the magic juice of the flower upon the eye-lids of sleeping Demetrius (iii. 2), we hear him utter eight verses all rhyming to the same sound : Flower of this purple dye, Hit with Cupid's archery, Sink in apple of his eye ! When his love he doth espy, Let her shine as gloriously, As the Venus of the sky. When thou wak'st, if she be by, Beg of her for remedy. This is translated by Schlegel (who omits the rhyme on " ein " in the seventh and eighth lines), thus :
