A Defence of the Reformed Catholicke of M. W. Perkins, lately deceased, against the bastard Counter-Catholicke of D. Bishop, Seminary Priest
A 1611 London polemical treatise by Robert Abbot, printed by Thomas Adams, defending the Puritan theologian William Perkins against a Catholic seminary priest, aimed at a learned Protestant readership. Its pictures are small woodcut initials and ornamental headpieces, with decorative foliage, a grotesque face, a winged angel, and a robed figure with a staff, useful to a designer for historic letterforms, border ornament and framing devices.
