 Henry WRIOTHESLEY (3° E. Southampton)
Southampton doubtless inspired Marlowe with genuine personal affection, but it was in perfect accord with the forms of address that were customary in the communication of poets with patrons for Marlowe to describe his relations with his Maecenas in the language of an overmastering passion.
Southampton was only twenty when Marlowe went into exile in 1593 at the age of twenty-nine.
Meanwhile in 1596 and 1597 Southampton had been actively employed, having accompanied Essex on his two expeditions to Cádiz and to the Azores, in the latter of which he distinguished himself by his daring tactics.

 Chamberlain's Man
Many scholars identify Southampton as the young man of the sonnets, which were also probably largely composed during this period, perhaps initially at the instigation of Southampton's mother in an effort to get her son to marry.
If Shakespeare was spending his efforts writing lyric poetry and sonnets, he probably was not writing for the stage during 1593-early 1594, but this does not mean he did not write plays with a view to the theaters reopening or for the private entertainment of his aristocratic friends.
If Southampton rewarded Shakespeare financially, it would explain how Shakespeare could have afforded to become a sharer in the Chamberlain's men--an investment which formed the foundation of his lifelong financial success.

 AllRefer.com - Somerset, Edward Seymour, duke of (British And Irish History, Biography) - Encyclopedia
The fall and execution (1549) of his brother, Baron Seymour of Sudeley, lord high admiral, was a strong blow to the protector's authority and power, and John Dudley, earl of Warwick (later duke of Northumberland) took advantage of this and other misfortunes.
Joining Thomas Wriothesley, earl of Southampton, and others, he deprived (1549) Somerset of the protectorate and imprisoned him in the Tower of London.
Somerset was released in 1550, but a revival of his influence led Warwick to arrest (1551) him again, whereupon he was convicted (1552) on a charge of felony and beheaded.

Edward de Vere's pen name "Shakespeare" was the Rival Poet of Sonnets 77-86, written in March 1601 while Henry Wriothesley, Earl of Southampton languished as a convicted traitor
During his 1601-1603 imprisonment, Southampton was a "dead man" in the eyes of the law and, therefore, no poets were publicly praising him.
Oxford's only "rival" was his own pen name, the "better spirit" known as William Shakespeare, whose dedications to Southampton were continuing to appear in new editions:

That Southampton accepted the first but did not reward Shakespeare in money for it is possible but not likely because (1) again, why would Shakespeare waste a second poem on him had he gotten nothing for the first (and accompanied that second poem with a dedication so extremely adoring)?
Certainly, it is possible that Shakespeare may only have been told by one of Southampton’s men that the earl liked the poem without the poet’s meeting the earl, a go-between passing on the earl’s warrant, that is. But Southampton was said to have liked poetry.
But all those poems show is that by his late twenties Shakespeare was capable of writing two fairly standard, if well-done, long poems, and getting them published, apparently with the financial help of one very young nobleman, whom he buttered up in one introduction, and spoke with friendliness of in a second.
