A 1615 Latin commentary on the Acts of the Apostles by John Malcolm (d. 1634), printed at Middelburg by R. Schilders for A. Vivarius, aimed at biblical scholars and readers of scripture. Its two pictures are small woodcut and engraved ornaments: a central mask-like face flanked by feathered headdresses, foliage, and swags, and a black diamond-shaped arabesque of scrolls and leafy tendrils that a designer could adapt for borders, frames, or emblem panels.
