Some drops of the viall powred out in a season when it is neither night nor day : or, Some discoveries of Jesus Christ his glory in severall books ..
A 1645 London religious tract by the Puritan writer John Saltmarsh, printed for a general Christian readership. Its pictures are decorative woodcut initial letters, each a large capital I framed by dense foliage, scrolls and small birds or animals, with the same design repeated across several versions. A designer could take from them the interlaced vine-and-bird border and the way a heavy letterform is built from ornament.
