60 FRANCIS BACON'S CRYPTIC RHYMES and "arrow'" were meant to rhyme with "go-go-gobow " ; for we must remember that three hundred years ago, syllables and words rhymed, the sound of which has now become changed. In those days the word " how " was not pronounced as it is now, but more like an " O." The same may be said of the accentuation of words. In one of the old popular ballads which Ophelia sings in Hamlet, we find the word " window'," with the accent on the last syllable ; in other ancient ballads " England' " rhymes with "hand," and we come across words which have retained their French accent, for instance: "battaile"' and "damsille'," with the accent on the final syllable.

After " Be " and after "See" there must be a pause; so that the original verses might be written in four lines, thus : Be As thou wast wont to be ; See As thou wast wont to see. In Bacon's prose-rhymes we shall also find instances of one-syllabled lines rhyming together or with others. How many a reader has hitherto (like the author) allowed such instances of euphony and " thoughts that breathe and words that burn " or sparkle with wit, to escape his eye and ear when reading those Plays A ! passage about as rich in rhyme as that "/, but to die, and go we know not where " occurs, for instance, in the prose text of The Comedy of Errors (iii. i) : DROMIO. Faith, I saw it not ; but I felt it hot in her breath. Schlegel-Tieck and even Hertzberg do not appear to have noticed the rhymes for they simply translate ; thus : DROMIO. Wahrhaftig, ich habe es nicht gesehen. es heiss in ihrem Atem. Aber ich fuhlte And yet the answer of the jovial attendant affords us a charming instance how the poet could toss about with rhymes, similarly as is the case in our Nursery Rhymes and Fables : Faith, I saw it not; but I felt it hot in her breath.
