The workes of John Boys
A 1629 London collected sermons and works by the Church of England divine John Boys, published by Aspley and drawn from a California Digital Library scan, aimed at a learned clerical and lay readership. The four pictures are woodcut decorated initial letters, mostly a large capital T or I framed by interlaced scrolls, foliage, acanthus leaves and small birds, with a stiff, hatched black-and-white line style a designer could adapt for ornamental capitals and borders.
