Simboleography. Which may be termed the art, or description, of instruments and presidents
Simboleography is a 1615 English legal treatise by William West, printed in London by the Stationers' Company for lawyers and conveyancers working on forms and precedents. Its pictures are woodcut decorative initials, a tall ornamental capital I or F with interlaced scrolls and leafy foliage, and a large capital A framed by curling vines and flowers, useful to designers seeking Elizabethan-Jacobean border and initial letter ornament.
