[…] To such fellows it matters not that they make⟳ a book dirty and greasy, cutting the pages with their fingers, and holding the boards over the fire till they crack. All these slatternly practices, though they destroy⟳ a book as surely as the flames of Caesar's soldiers at Alexandria, seem fine manly acts to the grobians who use⟳ them.”
