A 1652 London religious tract printed by M. Simmons for John Blague and Samuel Howes, reporting Puritan missionary progress among the Indians of New England for a Christian English readership. Its pictures are small decorative type ornaments: a black-and-white woodcut block with interlaced foliage and knotwork, a long strip border of scrolling vines and figures, and a historiated initial A with two grotesque figures beside it, useful to a designer for period-appropriate framing devices and display letters.
