PRINTER! SPARE THE BOOK.
BY THOMAS MACKELLAR.
Printer! spare that book!
Cut not a single leaf!
You know not half the pains we took,
Or you'd regard our grief.
For many a thoughtful hour
We cull'd our fruitful brain
To set before you type and flower
All strung on beauty's chain.
Printer! spare that book!
It is our fancy's pet:
Turn gently o'er its leaves, and look
How tastefully 'tis set!
There's learning in its page!
There's humor in its lines!
And there the wisdom of the sage
With poesy combines.
Printer! spare that book!
Make it your office Pride,
And keep it in a cherish'd nook,
Your cunning skill to guide.
When types grow old, and fain
You would your stock renew,
Send us the number and the name
But spare the book now do!
