    For Him That Stealeth

    A Book from this Library, let it


    change into a serpent in his hand and
    rend him. Let him be struck with
    Palsy, and all his members blasted. Let
    him languish in Pain crying aloud for
    Mercy and let there be no surcease to
    his Agony till he sink in Dissolution.
    Let Bookworms gnaw his Entrails in
    token of the Worm that dieth not, and
    when at last he goeth to his final
    Punishment, let the flames of Hell
    consume him for ever and aye.
    16th Century Spanish Curse
