Methode pour guerir toute sorte de fievres, : sans rien faire prendre par la bouche.
A 1694 Paris medical treatise by the physician Jean-Adrien Helvétius on curing all kinds of fevers without oral medicine, printed by the widow of Nicolas Oudot for a general readership of physicians and lay readers. Its three pictures are small black woodcut-style ornaments: a leaf-and-flower tailpiece, a cartouche with fleur-de-lis flanked by winged putti, and an engraved heraldic achievement with a shield and motto ribbon, useful to designers wanting period decorative borders and armorial motifs.
