King Lear. Some of the quoted lines are, "What? Is he dead?" and "Sit you down, father. Rest you," and "O! Untimely death!" and "Bury my body," all of which went straight to the "Paul Is Dead" stuff. I've never seen or read King Lear, but I remember reading that one of the characters, Edmund Earl of Glocester, was deceived by an imposter. Hence, the "Paul Is Dead" connection.
