Beautifully done, Sir Fraser.  And I believe Shakespeare have been using a different hand, the Secretary hand?

However illegible the Secretary hand is perceived by some, I am fascinated by Jean de Beauchesne exemplar of the Secretary hand.  Could I
do a request on the Secretary hand?   There are quite a few variation of the Secretary hand, I am not sure which one you are fond of.

Regards

I'm sorry that I'm not much use to you here. From the little I know, there are many variations of the style and I think that it would take many years to study them properly. To be perfectly honest, the style is just a bit too random for my taste and I wouldn't do it justice.
