Sitting last winter among my books, and walled around with all the
comfort and protection which they and my fireside could afford me--to
wit, a table of higher piled books at my back, my writing desk on one
side of me, some shelves on the other, and the feeling of the warm fire
at my feet--I began to consider how I loved the authors of those books.
