A 1700 London edition of Diego de Saavedra Fajardo's guide for rulers, printed for Matthew Gilliflower and Luke Meredith and translated under James Astry, with one hundred emblems on the education of princes. Each plate is an oval cartouche framed by scrolling ornament, bearing a Latin motto on a ribbon above a small emblematic scene of trees, plants, or hands.
