BE2, please read what I wrote above (26 Oct 05 - 09:45 PM). Shakespeare's contemporaries most certainly DID credit him with the authorship of both the plays and the poems.

      Romeo and Juliet
      All's Wells That Ends Well
   RaPe of Lucrece
    HAmlet
    MIdsummer Night's Dream
HenRy IV
    TEmpest

Ergo, I wrote Shakespeare's stuff, even though I wasn't born yet. Word games can be played with forever and prove nothing.
