Happy Shakespeare Day!
“This wilt beest the lodging” is Shakespeare for … “This must be the place” by pop minstrels Talking Heads.

William Shakespeare’s birth date was never officially recorded as it was not the norm in that era. However, people from all over the world have considered April 23 as his date of birth. Also, the Bard of Avon passed away on the same date he was born, i.e., April 23, 1616. See When Was Shakespeare Born?
