Daemoniaci, hoc est, De obsessis a spiritibus daemoniorum hominibus liber unus : in quo daemonum obsidentium conditio, obsessorum hominum status, rationes & modi, quibus ab obsessis exiguntur ; causae item tum difficilis exitus ipsorum, tum signorum quae exituri relinquunt ... discutiuntur & explicantur, denuò omnia repurgata & aucta
A Latin treatise on demonic possession and exorcism by the Jesuit theologian Petrus Thyraeus, printed at Lyon by Jean Pillehotte in 1603 for clergy and scholars. The plates here are small woodcut initial letters, square and framed, filled with hatched grounds, foliage, tulip-like blooms and birds; useful as drop caps or as sources for compact ornamental borders.
