Strength out of Weakness; Or A glorious manifestation of the further progresse of the Gospel among the Indians in New-England.
A 1652 London pamphlet printed by M. Simmons for John Blague and Samuel Howes, reporting to English readers on the spread of Christian missions among the Indians of New England. The pictures are three letterpress woodcut elements: a large decorated initial T with foliate scrollwork, a square-framed T set in interlaced leafy ornament, and a horizontal band of repeated damask-like floral motifs. A designer might take from them the dense, symmetrical strapwork and vine ornament of early printed books, adaptable for borders, initials and pattern repeats.
