The saints everlasting rest; or, A treatise of the blessed state of the saints in their enjoyment of God in glory. Wherein is shewed its excellency and certainty; the misery of those that lose it, the way to attain it, and assurance of it; and how to live in the continual delightful foretasts of it by the help of meditation
Richard Baxter's 1658 devotional treatise on the saints' everlasting rest, printed in London by Thomas Underhill and F. Tyton for a Protestant reading public. Its pictures are four woodcut initial letters, the decorated capitals I, H, T and I, built from interlaced scrollwork, leaf forms and shaded strapwork that a designer could borrow for ornamental capitals and historical borders.
