"And, gilt and lettered with the author's name, Whatever is most excellent and rare Shall be, or seem to be ('tis all the same), Assembled there." The work was done, the simulated hoards Of wit and wisdom round the chamber stood, In binding some; and some, of course, in _boards_ Where all were wood. From bulky folios down to slender twelves The choicest tomes, in many an even row Displayed their lettered backs upon the shelves, A goodly show. With such a stock as seemingly surpassed The best collections ever formed in Spain, What wonder if the owner grew at last Supremely vain? What wonder, as he paced from shelf to shelf And conned their titles, that the squire began, Despite his ignorance, to think himself A learned man? Let every amateur, who merely looks To backs and binding, take the hint, and sell His costly library--_for painted books Would serve as well_. Poetry means more to us and we get more enjoyment from reading it when we understand some of the difficulties that the poet has in writing it and can recognize those things which make it poetry in form. For instance, you will notice in the poem which we have just read that every stanza has four lines; that, in printing, the first and third lines begin close to the margin, while the second and fourth lines begin a little farther in on the page--that is, they are _indented_. Now if you will look at the ends of the lines you will see that the words with which the first and third lines terminate are in rhyme, and that the words with which the second and fourth lines terminate are in rhyme. In other words, the indentation at beginning of lines in poetry calls attention to the rhymes.
