L. Botta "Too Many Books" by Robert Leighton "A Nook and a Book" by William Freeland "The Art of Book-Keeping" by Laman Blanchard The Blanchard poem is a bibliophile's lament about books borrowed, but never returned. Here's an excerpt from Anne Botta's poem: "In the Library" By Anne C. L. Botta Speak low - tread softly through these halls; Here genius lives enshrined, - Here reign, in silent majesty, The monarchs of the mind. A mighty spirit-host, they come From every age and clime; Above the buried wrecks of years They breast the tide of time. And in their presence-chamber here They hold their regal state, And round them throng a noble train, The gifted and the great.
