Title is enclosed within a heart-shaped frame. Fifteen blank leaves at front for book summaries and headings. Small woodcut vignettes at the beginning of Genesis, Psalms, and Matthew. Text in two column Roman font. Issued without Apocrypha. New Testament title page (1642) similar to the general title. Concludes with colophon (1642). Bound with a complete The Whole Book of Psalmes within woodcut border (1642).

Condition: Crisp and clean overall. General title nearly detached. Blank leaves with occasional commentary notes in neat hand. Sidenotes shaved with infrequent loss of a letter. Lightly rubbed, corners bumped, joints lightly worn but holding firm. A lovely example of a hard-to-find interleaved Bible.
