Explore "The Man who Could Write" by Rudyard Kipling on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Shun -- shun the Bowl! That fatal, facile drink / Has ruined many geese who dipped their quills in 't; / Bribe, murder, marry, but steer clear of Ink / Save when you write receipts for paid-up bills in 't.
There may be silver in the "blue-black" -- all / I know of is the iron and the gall.
