Treatise of the sacraments according to the doctrine of the Church of England touching that argument ... : with a sermon preached June 24, 1638
A 1638 London sermon and treatise on the sacraments by Thomas Bedford, printed by Richard Bishop for Abel Roper, and aimed at English Puritan readers. The four pictures are small decorative woodcut initial letters, each a large T built from interlaced foliage, scrollwork and strapwork, with the thick black outlines and uneven ink typical of letterpress blocks. A designer could take from them the idea of a letter formed from framing ornament, with the stem and crossbar drawn in heavy contour against lighter filigree.
