Westminster Assembly (1643-1652) · 1647 · Edenburgh: printed by Evan Tyler, printer to the Kings most excellent Majesty. 1647. And reprinted at London for Robert Bostock, at the King head in Pauls Church-yard · 4 pictures

A 1647 Edinburgh printing of church government proposals by the Westminster Assembly, printed by Evan Tyler and reprinted in London for Robert Bostock, aimed at Presbyterian clergy and church readers. Its four pictures are small woodcut initial letters: two show a J inside a square frame of scrolling foliage, and two show a large C or G with a dense floral interior, all in a dark, heavy, hand-cut style that suggests strong framing devices for decorative capitals.
