"A bibliognoste, from the Greek, is one knowing in title-pages and colophons, and in editions; the place and year when printed; the presses whence issued; and all the minutiæ of a book." "A bibliographe is a describer of books and other literary arrangements." "A bibliomane is an indiscriminate accumulator, who blunders faster than he buys, cock-brained and purse-heavy."
In vain might Homer roll the tide of song, Or Horace smile, or Tully charm the throng; If, crost by Pallas' ire, the trenchant blade, Or too oblique, or near the edge, invade, The Bibliomane exclaims, with haggard eye, 'No margin! turns in haste, and scorns to buy."
