(579) Alexander Waugh and the Prima Facie Case of Shakespeare

In the Intro of Alexamder Waugh'd Video  "John Cooke knew …".    

Alexander Waugh explains  that his "Long ongoing ever-expanding series of similarly titled presentations, all called " XY knew…."(Such as William Covell, Henry Willoubie, William Basse, Richard Barnfield, Francis Meres etc.)

 "…. in each of which I take a contemporary witness to the fact, that William Shakespeare was a pseudonym of the Earl of Oxford, because the prima-facie-case of Shakespeare is the Oxfordian case as amply demonstrated [??] in these [Waugh's ] Videos".

                                             Alexander Waugh's VIDEO :  
                                      John Cooke knew...

Is Alexander Waugh  really of the opinion that he could „amply demonstrate in his Video: John Cooke Knew…(...the City Gallant...) “that a virtually unknown and untraceable, unnamed Poet I.C. (John Cooke 15??-16??) knew,  or was aware that Shakespeare is a Pseudonym of Edward de Vere , the 17th Earl of Oxford.? 

Is he  really convinced of the plausibility and logic of his argument?

He  should at least have tried to explain to his auditors, how it could happen, that an "incognito" Author with the initials I.C. in his fine comedy (at the time highly popular!)  „Greene‘s Tu Quoque“ (...The City Gallant...) stunningly used 10 identical lines as Marlowe in his Poem „Hero & Leander“.(1598). - This needs an explanation!!! 

10 lines (Excerpt Faksimile)

Out of I.C: "Greenes Tu Quoque" (1614)
