The blog was getting a lot of hits looking for living descendants of Henry VIII, so I posted an answer<\/a>, and followed up with an anagram version<\/a> of the answer.<\/p>\n

Now, because those words appear on the blog, I’m getting a lot of hits looking for living descendants of Shakespeare.<\/p>\n

You can check out the Shakespeare family tree<\/a> yourself, or you can just read this week’s Shakespeare anagram.<\/p>\n

From Love’s Labour’s Lost<\/em>:<\/p>\n

Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives,
\nLive register’d upon our brazen tombs,
\nAnd then grace us in the disgrace of death;
\nWhen, spite of cormorant devouring Time,
\nThe endeavour of this present breath may buy
\nThat honour which shall bate his scythe’s keen edge,
\nAnd make us heirs of all eternity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Shift around the letters, and it becomes:<\/p>\n

Our favorite ultra-premium poet has no living descendants.<\/p>\n

Firstly, he begat three basic little prizes (smart trio!) with his gal Anne Hathaway.<\/p>\n

Thereafter, son Hamnet fathered none because he kicked it young.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, both daughters had children, but none of those unveiled any themselves.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
