“A book a week I heave a sigh; That Slogan's peremptory cry I will not hear, I will not heed. How can They say that I should need The book They bid me weekly buy? But Slogans change, as days go by; My Psyche listens, fluttering shy, To newer message "Come and Read A book a week." To read! to read! O wings that fly O'er sun-kissed lands, through clouded sky That bear us on where Great ones lead! I too must follow, so I plead For magic wings. I'll read (or try) A book a week!” ReadingBooks Book:The Book-Lovers Enchiridion: Thoughts On The Solace And Companionship Of Books Source: The Book-Lovers Enchiridion: Thoughts On The Solace And Companionship Of Books
