Borders are repeated sometimes in new combinations. To start a new tale we have more elaborate and descriptive work with a red or blue initial letter.There they are the characters in the tale with their stage scenery.One other quality in these borders should be noticed-their mannerism the distortion of human figures sometimes so that they almost share the forms of leaf and stem-and sometimes grow from them. It is another rather touching aspect of Gill's idea and all these manners work towards a single art-the poetry people leaves decoration and explanation.
