Eyn new Christlich lied Jnn Tollner melodey, das (einsteyls) verantwurtet der gots lesterer Schmehung, So der Bauren auffruor dem Euangelio fälschlich zuo legendt ...
A 1525 German broadside hymn printed in Strasbourg by the heirs of Matthias Schürer, answering the Peasants' War and its supposed abuse of the Gospel, and aimed at a general readership of Reformation-era believers. The first picture is a dense woodcut border of scrolling foliage with a central urn and vase motif, and the second is a small scene of two haloed figures in a courtyard before a brick building, showing how compact woodcut figures and ornamental framing can organise a narrow page.
