A thankfull remembrance of Gods mercie is a 1630 London collection of English church and state deliverances from the reign of Queen Elizabeth onward, written by George Carleton, Bishop of Chichester, and printed for Protestant readers. Its engraved scenes show rebels hanged and executed beside armies, courtiers in conference, and ornate initial letters, with dense small-scale line work a designer might borrow for historical narrative vignettes.
