Leicester’s Commonwealth (1584)

   Is the letter-string “VERE” and the cluster intended to say:  

                  “The Copie of a Leter Written by a master:   Concerning VERE, the son the Erle of Leycester

                                                              (Robert Dudley) conceived.”

   In short:   Is Edward de Vere considered/suspected to be the son of Robert Dudley, the Erle of Leicester by Elizabeth I — at least with regard to the substantive content of the letter?  

 

Double “vv“s intended to be “w“s changed to “w“s.

The “u” in “graue” is intended to be a “v” , here changed to “grave“–and in all “Vere”s presented.

NOTE:  Job, Chapter 20, Verse 17.
