usepackage{color}
definecolor{Red}{RGB}{157,16, 45}
usepackage{lettrine}
input GoudyIn.fd
newcommand*initfamily{usefont{U}{GoudyIn}{xl}{n}}
begin{document}
large
lettrine[lines=3]{color{Red}{initfamily{A}}}{color{Red}s} the inclinations
and judgments of writers have been different, so have they disposed
themselves to treat of different matters.---Some, charmed with the beauty of
eloquence,
end{document}
