Shakespeare was a pioneer of new phrases and as it turns out... 6-7 (or being at sixes and sevens) has been around for quite some time! Even as we see showing up in the canon. Shakespeare is ever relevant! Does this mean we can bring back 'Zounds? 🤣🙏🏼 #67meme

Happy Birthday, Ben Jonson! He’s considered the 2nd most important playwright & poet to Shakespeare. Probably his best known lines are from his preface to Shakespeare’s First Folio of 1623, such as: “Soule of the Age ! The applause ! delight ! the wonder of our Stage ! Happy B-day, Ben!

Our next Tree List is Chaucerian, from Parliament of Fowls. In this list, he gives us meanings & uses for the trees, something we love especially. It’s not the only time Chaucer takes to listing trees. Check the comments with a h/t to an essay by Ingo Berensmeyer:

Spenser - like Shakespeare (with a difference 😉) - is part of a storied tradition of poets cataloguing trees (like Chaucer to Ovid to Virgil, & more!) This is Spenser "preserving" trees in The Faerie Queene. But some of these ancient trees are in peril. Read on for more…🌳

1 Henry.IV, V.i These things indeed you have articulate, Proclaim'd at market-crosses, read in churches, To face the garment of rebellion #ShakespeareSunday

King. These things indeed you have articulate,
Proclaim'd at market-crosses, read in churches,
To face the garment of rebellion
With some fine colour that may please the eye
Of fickle changelings and poor discontents,
Which gape and rub the elbow at the news
Of hurlyburly innovation:
And never yet did insurrection want
Such water-colours to impaint his cause;
Nor moody beggars, starving for a time
Of pellmell havoc and confusion.
