A treatise of the Sabbath-day : containing a defence of the orthodoxall doctrine of the church of England, against Sabbatarian-novelty

White, Francis, 1564?-1638 · 1635 · London : Printed by R. Badger · 4 pictures

A 1635 London treatise by the English churchman Francis White, printed by R. Badger, defending Church of England doctrine on the Sabbath against Puritan sabbatarian arguments. The pictures are plain typographic ornaments and printer's decoration: a row of crowned shield cartouches, a crowned strapwork border, and a manuscript-annotated page with scribbled ink marks, all in brown-black on aged paper that suggests stock fleurons a designer could reuse for period borders and frames.
