A 1631 Latin theological reply printed at Harderwijk by the Remonstrant press, written by Simon Episcopius against four Leiden professors and kept in the John Adams Library. The pictures are woodcut printers' ornaments: a foliate headpiece, decorated initials D and A, and a horned bull's head set in scrolling vine-like tendrils, showing how early modern printers framed text with flourishes a designer could borrow for borders and drop caps.
