First and Last Letters of Lines (II)
1.
In trying to get a full
understanding of poetry, a literary critic should not exclude the WONDERFUL, the extraordinary and downright impossible, because he may instinctively
refrain from feeling hopelessly inferior to the poet's genius. The wonderful if conceded at all seems to
elude rational explication, so critics, especially of music, resort to
emotional speech, or they look at it in a matter-of-fact attitude and miss part
of its charm and value. As to Shakespeare, we should not doubt that he works
wonders of mathematical rationality.
2.
This preface seems necessary
before we take another look at the 14
initial and 14 final
letters of the sonnet lines. The first time
only the numeric values were counted. This time the factoral values dealt with in the previous
part are added. Furthermore the focus is on the 10 different single letters, 7 initial, 3
final. The wonderful thing
about them is that their combined values conincide with the SATOR-Square and the
names IESUS CHRISTUS. So let
us look at the values of these two references:
3.
The SATOR-Square contains 8 different single letters which can be arranged to
form the word PENSATOR he who weighs (merits and transgressions)
referring to God as the judge of all men after death. The act of balancing
shows correspondence in the numeric sum (NS) of 51
for each group of 4
letters.

The sum of numerical and factoral values 182 is also the NS alone of the sentence SATOR (69) OPERA (52) TENET (61) The creator maintains his works.

We can see that the total sum of factoral values (FV) 112 is
equal to the NS of CHRISTUS.
We can also observe
without relevance to the sonnet a symmetrical structure of values if the NV and FV
are added: The ratio of the 6 outer to the 7 inner letters is 144:150 = 6*(24:25). The ratio of 6:1:6 letters
is 14*(9:1:11). The letter H in itself has a
symmetrical shape.
5.
We can divide numbers into those
with more than one prime factor and into prime numbers. One half of the 10 letter values of the sonnet belong to group I, the others to group II. 5
letters can furthermore be subdivided into 2+3 with equal NS:

The NS+FS 102
of group I
and 80
of group II
correspond to the NS and FS of PENSATOR.
The NS
of the 10 letters is 66+40 = 106
identical with the NS+FS of IESUS.
The FS of IESUS is the same as the FS of group group I, the FS
of CHRISTUS is
composed of the FS of both
groups (36+40 = 76).
6.
What has become of WILL and AMELIA
in the initial and final letters? There is a connection to IESUS CHRISTUS, but if
Shakespeare was aware of it, must be left open. If one singles out the
different letters of both names, the NS
of the twice four letters are 52
and 47, the same as for the WILL and AMELIA:

170:175 =
5*(34:35) = 5*69 |
Together with the factoral values the result is a ratio of
34:35
that corresponds to the numerical value of SATOR
with an identical internal distribution of values.
The factoral sums 52+47 = 99 close the gap between 102 and 201
of the SATOR-Square,
that is between the 8
different letters and the 17
remaining letters. Finally, the multiplication 8*17 is 136,
the number of the sonnet.

Inversion is a main theme of

Shakespeare has two possibilities of applying the
EMILIA WILL TENET WILLIAM AEMILIA
He maintains EMILIA and WILL, he maintains
WILLIAM and AEMILIA.
Second, Shakespeare could take the part of SATOR and say
WILL EMILIA TENET AEMILIA WILLIAM
WILL holds EMILIA, it's AEMILIA WILLIAM
holds.
An
examination of letter values will show that the suggestion makes more sense.
The two words SATOR OPERA is

The NS
of SATOR OPERA is 69+52 = 121
= 11*11. The
number 121 itself is an inversion
of numbers.
As the numeric difference between WILLIAM and WILL is 2*11,
the total sum 264 is likewise divisible by 11. If the factoral sum 198 is added, 264 is
inverted to 462.
The combined NS+FS of the second and fourth lines 352 is divisible by 11 as well. The complete sum is 814 = 74*11, thus proving WILLIAM as the dominating figure.
The FS 153 is inverted to 351 by 198.
But WILL,
too, gets his rights: If the NV+FV 122
of TENET is
added to 814, the
result is 936 = 18*52 = 72*13.
2.
Another form of inversion lies
in the NV 221 = 17*13 of the
four names itself. Added to 182
= 14*13, the result is 403 = 31*13.
The NV
122 of WILLIAM and AEMELIA coincides with twice the NV of TENET.
This equality of values suggests participation of the loving couple in the
strength of the
3.
The factoral sums of SATOR OPERA TENET and IESUS CHRISTUS are 155+112 = 267.
The combined NS+FS of these five words is 364 +276
= 631,
which is a primenumber. If we assume that Shakespeare knew the result, he had a
motive to make the inversion 136
the number of his sonnet.
