A brief explication of the other fifty psalmes, from Ps. 50. to Ps. 100
A brief explication of the other fifty psalms is a 1653 London devotional commentary by Scottish theologian David Dickson, printed for Ralph Smith and aimed at Bible readers. Its three pictures are large woodcut decorative initial capital T letters, each built from dense, shaded foliage, scrolls and tendrils framing a tall stem, with the letter's crossbar and foot clearly drawn. A designer could take from them a model for dense, black-and-cream botanical lettering and for ornamental initials that fill a square frame.
