A holy commonwealth : or, Political aphorisms, opening the true principles of government: for the healing of the mistakes, and resolving the doubts, that most endanger England at this time ..
A Holy Commonwealth is a 1659 London political treatise by the Puritan divine Richard Baxter, printed for the booksellers T. Underhill and F. Tyton and addressed to a English readership facing the question of government after the Protectorate. Its pictures are a repeated strapwork border tile and two large decorated initial letters, B and M, in woodcut style with foliage and a grotesque face, useful to a designer seeking historical ornament for display capitals and framing bands.
