 I remember reading that wax was found in a few of them, so the dodecahedra could have been candlestick holders at times. Makes sense that they might've been used for more than one purpose imo.

I am reminded of this guy from the 1640s with strong feelings about literary critics. Can't recall who, it was in the foreword of a book of travel stories I have.

'If thou beest a Villain, a Ruffian, a Momus, a Knave, a Carper, a Critick, a Bubo, a stupid Asse, and a gnawing Worme with envious Lips, I bequeath thee to a Carnificiall reward, where a hempen Rope will soon dispatch thy snarling slander, and free my toylesome Travailes and now painefull Labours, from the deadly Poyson of thy sharpe edged calumnies, and so goe hang thy selfe; for I neither will respect thy Love, nor regard thy Malice.'

William Lithgow- “Rare adventures and painefull peregrinations”

At least I’m pretty sure anyway, the quote sounds really familiar.
