A 1674 Latin satire by John Barclay, printed at Leiden by the Hackian press and held in Duke University's Gilbert Collection, aimed at a learned readership mocking Jesuits and Puritans. The pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a central cartouche with scrolls and a lion mask, and horizontal frieze strips of foliage, flowers and seated figures that a designer could borrow for borders and headpieces.
