The Mock Is Ticking
Books are dead things
With a potency of life in them
As active as those bastard progeny
Of that Evil Clown whose seed they are
Nay they do preserve as in a vile
That purest efficacy and extraction
Of that frightful living intellect that bred them
For, as good as it feels to kill a man; It is far better to kill a book..
The Clown who kills a man kills but a reasonable creature
Nothing but God's image
But the Evil Clown who destroys a good book, kills reason itself
Kills God, as it were, in the eye
Give great and effusive praise to fugitive and cloistered virtue
Unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out
And sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race, “Thanks Sally”
Where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat
