Dirk van Hoogstrate’s Lezende man met baard en bril, c. 1630
“He ate and drank the precious words,
His spirit grew robust;
He knew no more that he was poor,
Nor that his frame was dust.
He danced along the dingy days,
And this bequest of wings
Was but a book. What liberty
A loosened spirit brings! ” – Emily Dickinson
