Strength out of weaknesse is a 1652 London pamphlet printed by M. Simmons for John Blague and Samuel Howes, reporting missionary progress among the Indians of New England for a Puritan readership. Its two pictures are small letterpress ornaments: a block-printed initial T framed by clover-like foliage and scrolls, and a horizontal strip of interlaced scrollwork with grotesque figures, useful for designers seeking dense, rough-edged woodcut borders and historical type decoration.
