Quarles, Francis, 1592-1644, Harvey, Christopher, 1597-1663. Schola cordis · 1808 · Bristol : J. Lansdown & J. Mills · 47 pictures

An 1808 Bristol reprint of the emblem verses long credited to Francis Quarles but written by Christopher Harvey, issued by J. Lansdown & J. Mills for devotional readers. Small square copperplate emblems signed Johnson show a haloed winged child and a robed soul acting on a large heart in bare landscapes with hatched skies, offering compact figure vignettes, radiating-wing silhouettes and isolated heart motifs.
