Religio Medici

Two unauthorized editions appeared in 1642, both from Andrew Crooke in London, both published anonymously and without Browne's permission from a manuscript that reached Crooke, and both carrying the engraved title-page by William Marshall (active 1617-49): a figure tumbling headlong from a rock into the sea, caught by a hand issuing from the clouds, with the motto "a caelo salus" / "e coelo salus" and the words "Religio Medici" engraved on the plate
