Chapter 21

“Oh for a booke and a shadie nooke,Eyther in doore or out;With the grene leaves whispering overheadOr the streete cryes all about.Where I maie read all at my ease,Both of the newe and old;For a jollie goode booke whereon to looke,Is better to me than golde.”Old English Song

“Oh for a booke and a shadie nooke,

Eyther in doore or out;

With the grene leaves whispering overhead

Or the streete cryes all about.

Where I maie read all at my ease,

Both of the newe and old;

For a jollie goode booke whereon to looke,

Is better to me than golde.”
