A funeral oration printed in Leiden in 1611 by the Plantin-Raphelengius press, written by the medicine professor Everard Vorst for the botanist Carolus Clusius, with added memorial poems by various authors. The title-page device is a woodcut printer's emblem showing two standing figures flanking a rectangular plinth, a compass and a banner inscribed with Latin mottoes above, set in an ornate scrolled frame. A designer could take from it the symmetrical arrangement of figures, scrollwork and banner that frame a central emblem on an early-modern title page.

Clusius, Carolus, 1526-1609
