Miscellany poems

Dryden, John, 1631-1700 · 1684 · London : J.Tonson · 11 pictures

Miscellany poems, a 1684 London collection of verse by John Dryden, printed by J. Tonson and held by the California Digital Library. The pictures are small wood-engraved decorations: a laurel-wreathed lyre with a cherub head, a large ornamental initial W set among scrolling foliage, and a symmetrical acanthus cartouche topped by a bust, all printed in dense black line work a designer could borrow for headpieces, initials and ornamental frames.
