A necessary warning to the ministerie of the Kirk of Scotland : from the meeting of the Commissioners of the Generall Assembly at Edinburgh, 4 Jan., 1643
A 1643 Edinburgh pamphlet issued by the Commission of the Church of Scotland's General Assembly, printed by Evan Tyler, addressed to the Kirk's ministers as a formal warning. The pictures are decorative printer's ornaments: a striped foliage block with a large roman numeral I, a W initial flanked by scrolled dolphin-like brackets, a tiled panel of symmetrical scrollwork, and a later armorial bookplate for Andrew Hume dated 1707 with the motto True to the End, which a designer could borrow for compact framing, initials, and symmetrical border patterns.
