A feast full of sad cheere, where griefs are all on heape; where sollace is full deere, and sorrowes are good cheape
A 1592 London book by Thomas Churchyard, published by W. Holme, whose verse is set in a printed text with decorative borders and bands for a general English readership. The four pictures are horizontal strips of ornament: black and grey panels of interlaced scroll and foliage patterns, alternating with bands of grotesque masks, cherubs and curling vine scrolls, suitable for borders, friezes and historic pattern references.
