Alexander Smith Quote

Some books are drenchèd sands
On which a great soul's wealth lies all in heaps,
Like a wrecked argosy.


Scene 2. - A Life Drama and other Poems (1853)


Some books are drenchèd sands On which a great soul's wealth lies all in heaps, Like a wrecked argosy.

Some books are drenchèd sands On which a great soul's wealth lies all in heaps, Like a wrecked argosy.

Some books are drenchèd sands On which a great soul's wealth lies all in heaps, Like a wrecked argosy.

Some books are drenchèd sands On which a great soul's wealth lies all in heaps, Like a wrecked argosy.
