Zoomoprhic Initial

A quadruped, entangled in its knotted tongue, forms the letter that entraps a coloured bird.

Birds and bird initials appear next two types of passages: those describing identity and those describing his betrayal. Occurs alongside Luke 17:24 'But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.'
