Previous Blogs 463 / 464 / 465  concluded  that  contextual contents of "Wits Recreations (WR)" leave no doubt, that its anonymous author must have been  "concealed Christopher Marlowe" alias the "True Shakespeare" (Summary). - In Epigram nr.45 [s.Faksimile] the author obscurely reveals his relation to George Wither, adressing Wither (thou, thy) as another of himself (pseudonym). He himself is talking in the "Plural Majestatis" (we, our). He  twice highlights both their vices [s.SOED] as well as Withers impressive  book "Britains Remembrancer" (1628 s.--vol-1 ---  vol-2)
