AB  - Explores significance of a printer's ornament in the 1623 first folio: the "striking headpiece featuring Dionysus, urinating dogs, the torsos of archers, long-plumed birds of paradise, and rabbits amidst lush vegetation." Suggests that this headpiece places folio in classical tradition while emphasizing importance of drama. Shows how the Jaggard press reworked existing ornaments and traces additional uses of this printer's ornament across early print, including in second folio. English summary, 56.
