1. The shop owner said to his merchant
Your books here have increased in number

2. Shall we sew their edges and gather them
Together, so I can keep this from scattering

3. The wealthy merchant was startled and said to him

4. Is not a book's shape with its covers that
If seen even in sleep would remind one of a book

5. And here are the records from the beginning in your hands
So I never see books or their likes ever
