The only known copy of the Hussie “First Folio” of c. 1625 exists in fragments in the Bodelian Library (MS. Eng. misc. c. 413). No publishing details are available, provenance is unknown.  

Prologue:

The uncertain glory of an April day, Which now shows all the beauty of the sun, Limns a youth upon which no name did weigh These thirteen springs. That burden will be one He will take up this morn, and so in this This gentle youth becomes a gentleman, By taking on the name that’s rightfully his - A token that betokes a divine plan. Where others, who did Fate give name at birth Can have no say in what their fortune tells (Whether lives of misery or of mirth), This youth may choose his Heavens, or his Hells. He stands now at the door of childhood’s room, Now Let him learn his name, and learn his doom.  

Act 1, scene 1

   Voice: Enter name.

   Boy: Letters are appearing! As if drawn by Some fiery hand - and now I ken they spell The name “Zoosmell, Lord of Dung”? Fie on this, Fie! A shallow jest - better be the names Of rustics than nobility besmirched.

   Voice: Try again.

   Boy: More words appear, these pleasing to the eye - I’ll be “John Egbert”, a name for saints and Kings, I trow. Now to take up arms and go, But where among these cakes and bills for rude Entertainments could they be? In this drawer?

Looks in drawer

   Boy: No arms. Damn my addled mind: they rest Beneath the cake inside yon magic chest.

   Voice: Remove CAKE from MAGIC CHEST

Boy retrieves arms

   Boy: No antics or hilarity for now, I must needs store these in my Sylladex. What else lies here? Some Gyves that feign to lock, A Blade that cannot wound, a Hat, a Mask, Tricks to mimic smoke or blood, a Treatise On japes, a Volume on the life of a Man of wisdom who traffick’d in dark arts. All this I fain would take ‘gainst future need, For now mayhaps this smoke will show it’s meed.

Takes smoke pastilles

   Boy: Alas! my arms I now can’t bring to hand! This Sylladex is like unto the sack That peddlers use to cart about their wares – And all that they have pack’d must be unlade ‘Ere that which they pack’d first will come to light. No matter now: anon I’ll set it right.

Examines bill

tried to use wayback machine to see how many notes it had before it was brought back, but it started circulating again on nov 11 and i could only find one from nov 27, where it still only had 783 notes

in an attempt to find how obscure this post was before its resurrection, i went all the way down in the reblogs to see how many it had. and it looks like, before being brought into the modern day by @homestuckmadethisfanart​, it only had FOUR reblogs?

of course that wouldn’t include deactivated blogs, so there were probably more than just 4, but probably not TOO much more if that’s all that’s left of non-deactivated reblogs. especially because the average amount of notes op got on all their other posts (there’s only 25 of them so it was easy to calculate an average) was between 3-4 notes.

Hey there ❤️

If you been following my posts, you know that I've been struggling to keep bills paid and, recently, got another eviction notice. I will have to move once again next week because I ran out of any other options an now I only have a week left to leave.

I set a goal on ko-fi so I can find a place and not be unhoused again. I'm also lowering my prices temporarily until I reach the goal. If you can buy a commission or help me in any way, I promise to deliver my heart in your art. I will draw any OC's and any fandom you want.

Thanks for reading ❤️

was supposed to draw something else but it completely lost the plot and took on a life of its own

I'll make a music track for any kind of project you may need, be it an animation, a theme for a character for your tabletop game, or a song for a game, or anything else.

I have 4/4 slots open at the moment. Pricing begins at 20 dollars minimum, and will be negotiated based on the buyer's budget/needs. Roughly, 20 dollars buys one day worth of time put onto the piece; more time will cost around six dollars per day.

Here's some examples of music I've made before, from commissions, projects I've worked on:
