A vindication of the authority, constitution, and laws of the church and state of Scotland : in four conferences, wherein the answer to the dialogues betwixt the Conformist and the Non-conformist, is examined
A 1673 Glasgow polemic by Gilbert Burnet, printed by R. Sanders, defending Scottish church and state law against Non-conformists in a scholarly controversy addressed to educated readers and clergy. The four pictures are typographic ornaments: a foliate cartouche with interlaced initials, a large decorated letter M with a winged face, a small framed letter H with scrolled corners, and a plain heavy W, offering designers a range of early modern printers' ornament and display capitals.
