Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at the listed coordinates!
Could this be a clue?

The works of William Shakespeare and the King James Version of the Bible have long been regarded as the most beautiful examples of the English language. Whether written on ink on sheepskin folios or recorded as binary digits on magnetic/optical media, these works have contributed many colorful idioms and expressions that remain a vital part of the language even today. Can you tell which is which? Good luck!

North:

There were giants in the earth in those days.

I have been a stranger in a strange land.

Blessed are the peacemakers on earth.

We know what we are, but know not what we may be.

Your heart's desires be with you!

Truth is truth to the end of reckoning.

How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!


West:

Oh, that I had wings like a dove.

We went through fire and through water.

Put not your trust in princes.

I must be cruel, only to be kind.

The better part of valour is discretion.

As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.

Nothing will come of nothing.

Make us heirs of all eternity.

Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.

I will be the pattern of all patience.
