The journal or diary of a thankful Christian : presented in some meditations upon Numb. 33.2 ..
A 1656 London devotional diary by the Puritan writer John Beadle, printed by E. Cotes for Thomas Parkhurst and aimed at pious Christian readers. Its four pictures are small woodcut-style devices: a repeating spiral and scroll tile pattern, a heraldic-like shield with bells and pomegranates, and a column inscribed with a Hebrew name and the words Hitherto hath the Lord helped us, which a designer could adapt for ornamental borders, emblem-style badges, or pattern repeats.
