I've seen a production of *The Winter's Tale* in which Florizel waved a
joint when delivering his speech to Perdita that begins "These your
unusual weeds."

Rastafarian? I think you're on to something. KJV's Psalm 137 is scored
no better than to a reggae beat. (By the waters of Babylon...). Rastas
do not merely "borrow lyrics" form KJV, they resurect and authenticate
the music which inspired Shakespeare.
And in KH4p2-
"I speak of Africa and golden joys."
Typical Rastafarian romanticization of the home continent.
