In heads replete with thoughts of other men;
Wisdom in minds attentive to their own.
Books are not seldom talismans and spells,
By which the magic art of shrewder wits
Holds an unthinking multitude enthrall’d.
Some to the fascination of a name
Surrender judgment hood-wink’d. Some the style
Infatuates, and through labyrinths and wilds
Of error leads them, by a tune entranc’d,
While sloth seduces more, too weak to bear
