Within this awful volume lies | |
The mystery of mysteries: | |
Happiest they of human race, | |
To whom their God has given grace | |
To read, to fear, to hope, to pray, | |
To lift the latch, to force the way; | |
But better had they ne’er been born, | |
Who read to doubt, or read to scorn. | |
— Sir Walter Scott’s Bible Inscription | |
