Ten sermons : tending chiefly to the fitting of men for the worthy receiving of the Lords supper ...
A 1634 London collection of ten English sermons by preachers John Dod and Robert Cleaver, printed by Thomas Harper for John Harrison, on preparing congregants to receive the Lord's Supper. The pictures are letter initials cut as woodblock ornaments, with the letter I repeated in three near-identical frames and a T in a fourth, each set in strapwork of scrolls, leaf shapes and hatched shadow. A designer could take from them the dense, hatched interior-filled capital style of early seventeenth-century English print, useful for drop caps and decorative monograms.
