Go, mark the matchless working of the power
That shuts within the seed the future flower;
Bids these in elegance of form excel.

Sends nature forth, the daughter of the skies,
To dance on earth, and charm all human eyes.

Books can be possessive, can't they? You're walking around in a bookstore and a certain one will jump out at you, like it had moved there on its own, just to get your attention. Sometimes what's inside will change your life, but sometimes you don't even have to read it. Sometimes it's a comfort just to have a book around. Many of these books haven't even had their spines cracked. 'Why do you buy books you don't even read?' our daughter asks us. That's like asking someone who lives alone why they bought a cat. For company, of course.
