Nouvelles demonstrations, pour cognoistre la cause des fièvres intermitantes & continuës, dysenteries, dyarrhees, lysenteries, é tout autre flux de ventre. Avec un ample & asseuré prognostic sur chacune d'icelles, & les remedes specifiques pour leur guerison
A 1645 French medical treatise by Henri de Rochas d'Ayglun, printed in Paris for its author, on the causes and cures of fevers and dysentery, and dedicated to Marshal de Bassompierre. The single picture is a dedication page set in a large ornamental capital with a decorated initial M, in roman type with italic lines. A designer could take the bold display capitals, the framed ornament at the head, and the contrast between heavy caps and light italic text as a model for period title-page typography.
