A 1638 London play text by Philip Massinger, printed by John Raworth for the bookseller Edward Blackmore, and sold from his shop at the Angel in Pauls Churchyard, written for performance at the Cock-Pit theatre in Drury Lane. The two pictures are small printed devices: an engraved heraldic coat of arms with a helm, crest and motto ribbon, and a winged horse in a lozenge frame. A designer might take from them the compact, symmetrical language of seals and bookplates, where a single emblem is framed by an ornamental border.
