Love and revenge : a tragedy acted at the Duke's Theatre
A 1675 London tragedy by Elkanah Settle, printed for the bookseller William Cademan and sold at the Popes-head in the New Exchange, Strand, for playgoers and readers of the Duke's Theatre. The first picture is a bookplate with a circular seal of laurel wreath, lyre and lettering above a 'Charlotte Hawes Fund' inscription, while the second is a large decorated initial W with a line of close black type beside it, showing how a dropped capital and dense seventeenth-century text sit together on the page.
