Simplicities defence against seven-headed policy. Or innocency vindicated, being unjustly accused, and sorely censured, by that seven-headed church-government united in New-England. .
A 1646 London pamphlet by Samuel Gorton, printed by John Macock and sold by Luke Fawne, defending the author against New England church government and concerning the Narragansett Indians. The picture is a decorated woodcut initial A with scrolling foliage, leaf-like ornament and a cross-hatched inner shape, set beside lines of black-letter text; a designer could borrow its interlaced foliate border and the way a large ornamental capital anchors a text block.
