Sing, weaving / poem and Elements


Sing, weaving / poem and Elements  by Judith Haswell 

ALAAB HAS State Library Location Code

A dainty little thing with a cunning "ribbon" binding, but the "ribbon" is actually three strands of 
paper woven together and binding all the pages together.  Pages are made of card. It stands up by itself.

It contains a poem, with a phrase on each page.Elements is a separate book, which is a quote from Physics by Empedocles about 450 BC.  Back when physics wasn't really science, but more like poetry.

As a scientist and a poet, I find that quote quite fascinating.
