Remonstrance salvtaire avx devoyez, qv'il n'est permis avx subiets, sous quelque pretexte que se soit, leuer les armes contre leur prince & roy, le tout prouué par l'escriture saincte,
A 1567 Paris printed treatist pamphlet by Thomas Beauxamis, issued by the printer Guillaume Chaudière, arguing from scripture that subjects may never take up arms against their prince or king. The pictures are small woodcut decorative initials and headpieces: a lion sits inside a foliate capital, a winged man with a scythe stands within a cartouche of scrolling strapwork, and a sprawling leaf-and-scroll border precedes a spaced-capital heading, showing how sixteenth-century French printers framed their text with ornament a designer could borrow for lettering panels and frames.
