Large thick 8vo bound in full brown morocco, very worn and rubbed, very worn lettering piece to spine. Joints cracked but holding. Marbled endpapers with binder's tape to strengthen hinges.

Psalms, (bound to front) and Old Testament lack their individual engraved title pages with unusual heart shaped text area inside the illustrations.

Generally a clean and sound early 17th century Bible and priced fairly to reflect condition.
