A harmonie vpon the three euangelistes is a 1610 London commentary on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, drawn from John Calvin and translated by E. P. for English Protestant readers, printed by Thomas Adams. The three pictures are a woodcut decorated initial T, a decorated initial I, and a title page framed by a dense border with the printer's roundel at the foot, showing the Elizabethan-Jacobean typographic style. A designer could take the interlaced foliage, the knotted border frames, and the stacked lettering of the title page as models for ornamented capitals and period layout.
