The chained library ...





The library was like Barquentine's study - 

Immense volumes were leashed by slender chains to cobwebbed shelves - 

We'd climbed a winding stair of twenty six steps - 

Below us were stones inscribed with the precious names of sons and daughters -

Words lay still as crusaders upon dark pages -
