The mirrour which flatters not.
A 1639 London printing of an ethics and conduct-of-life text, translated by Thomas Cary from the French of M. de La Serre and issued by the publisher R. Thrale for general readers. Its pictures are small woodcut typographic ornaments: a strapwork headpiece, a decorative initial O framed by foliage, and a tailpiece of two putti bracketing a central oval, which a designer could borrow for borders, dividers and initial letters.
