Thy gaudy shelves with crimson bindings glow. And Epictetus is a perfect beau. How fit for thee, bound up in crimson too, Gilt, and, like them, devoted to the view? Thy books are furniture. Methinks 'tis hard Tliat science should be purchased by the yard ; And Tonson, turn'd upholsterer, send home The gilded leather to fit up thy room\ If not to some peculiar end assign'd, Study 's the specious trifling- of the mind. Or is, at best, a secondary aim, A chase for sport alone, and not for game. If... so, sure they who the mere volume prize But love the thicket where the quarry lies.
On buying books Lorenzo long was bent. But found, at length, that it reduced his rent; His farms were flown : when, lo ! a sale comes on, A choice collectioji ! what is to be done ? He sells his last, for he the whole will buy ; Sells e'en his house ; nay, wants whereon to lie : So high the generous ardour of the man for Romans, (i reeks, and Orientals ran.
* Jacob Tonson fitted up many libraries of gilt books (oy South Sea coxcombs in 1720.
