    <<I tried putting [the 144 dedication letters]
    in a 12x12 square. The letters "ORIW" going down
    caught my eye... and I realized you could unscramble
    them to spell the name "H. Wriotheslie, SH"
    ("SH" for Southampton, perhaps). In the grid
    below, you can see the contiguous letters:

    "TO {WRIOTHESL(ie)}" .>>

    <<[THOMA(s) SNOUT] is a character in William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. He is a tinker, and one of the "mechanicals" of Athens, amateur players in Pyramus and Thisbe. Tom Snout was originally set to play Pyramus's father, but the need for a wall was greater, so he discharged The Wall which separates Pyramus' and Thisbe's gardens. In Pyramus and Thisbe, the two lovers whisper
    to each other through SNOUT's fingers (representing a gap in the wall).
    Snout has eight lines under the name of TOM SNOUT, and
    two lines as The Wall. He is the Wall for Act V-Scene 1. ..................................................................

    <<The Death of Chione>> by Nicolas Poussin, 1622 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daedalion#/media/File:Nicolas_Poussin-La_Mort_de_Chion%C3%A9.jpg

    <<Daedalion's daughter Chione was said to be so beautiful that she was the object of a thousand men's desire. Whilst returning from visits to earth both Apollo and Hermes caught sight of Chione and were filled with a burning lust. Apollo decided to wait
    until night fell, however Hermes was not so patient. Through the use of magic he caused Chione to fall into a deep sleep and proceeded to rape her. Later that evening Apollo also visited her in the guise of an old woman. As a result of these two divine
    visitations Chione gave birth to twins. By Hermes she gave birth to *Autolycus* who grew into a notorious thief and charlatan. By Apollo she bore Philammon, a man famed both for his voice and skill with a lyre. The attentions of not one but two gods led
    Chione to boast that her beauty exceeded even that of *Artemis*. To avenge this personal slight, not to mention blasphemy, Artemis struck Chione down by shooting an arrow straight through her tongue. Her father, Daedalion, was overcome with grief. At his
    daughter's funeral Daedalion tried to throw himself onto the pyre three times but was restrained. After a fourth unsuccessful attempt he ran, at an impossible speed, through the fields and the forests, climbed to the summit of Mount Parnassus and jumped.
    Apollo though took pity on the grieving father, transforming him into a *HAWK* before he could hit the ground. It is said that the *HAWK's* great strength, as well as its propensity for hunting other birds, is a result of Daedalion's former courage and
    the rage caused by the death of his daughter.>> ------------------------------------------------------------

    <<One of the 1623 First Folios in the Folger Shakespeare Library

    poems on the last end page of the volume, written in a secretary

    the poem from Shakespeare's monument in the Stratford church
