Bookishness

So, the rules are, "take the closest book to you, look at page 123, and post the fifth sentence on that page. Don't look around for the coolest book nearby, just take the CLOSEST."

Well.

I have nine books on my desk and seventeen sitting on the floor next to the desk. I'll stick to the desk then. For the sake of time. ;)

1. "With thy black mantle till strange love grown bold"

2. "I would not have your free and noble nature"

3. No fifth sentence on p. 123.

4. "As they had reason to be."

5. "Indeed, my father is sending me to escort her here and I can assure you that I shall pay every attention to her security and comfort."

6. "Why are you moved?"

7. "How can you not remember?"

8. "I would be beholden to you, my lord, if you did."

9. "From Calais he walked to Rheims, via Ardres and Cambrai."
