Witchcraft farther display'd. Containing I. An account of the witchcraft practis'd by Jane Wenham of Walkerne, in Hertfordshire, since her condemnation ... II. An answer to the most general objections against the being and power of witches: ... To which are added, the tryals of Florence Newton, a famous Irish witch, at the assizes held at Cork, anno 1661; as also of two witches ... at Bury St. Edmonds in Suffolk, anno 1664.
A 1712 London treatise by Francis Bragge, printed for the bookseller E. Curll, arguing for the reality of witchcraft and recounting trials including that of Jane Wenham of Hertfordshire. The three pictures are not scenes from the trials but decorative strips of ornament: borders built from repeated panels of interlaced scrolls, foliage and rosettes printed in dark brown ink on cream paper. A designer could take from them a model for repeating border patterns, with symmetrical lobed compartments and dense curling tendrils that suit historical or ornamental frames.
