The true history of councils enlarged and defended : against the deceits of a pretended vindicator of the primitive church ..
A 1682 London theological treatise by the Puritan divine Richard Baxter, printed for the bookseller Thomas Parkhurst, defending the authority of church councils against a rival writer on early church polity. Its pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a foliate border strip, two decorated initial letters (a V and a U) with interlace and flowers, and a repeating fleur-like band, offering a designer historical type ornaments and border strips to adapt for headers and dividers.
