Five disputations of church-government, and worship
Richard Baxter's 1659 treatise on church government and worship, printed in London by R.W. for N. Simmons, a Puritan argument aimed at clergy and lay readers of the period. Its pictures are the printer's decorative woodcut initial letters, a large capital I and a T, built from interlaced strapwork, scrolls and leafy shapes cut in hatched lines, which a designer could borrow for hand-cut display capitals or ornamental drop caps.
