About the event
A guest at your home might allow you to copy a favorite poem from the book he carried or leave a poetic remembrance of your lovely time together. Perhaps a bit of wisdom, a sketch or painting might be included. It was refined fun for the 18th and 19th century. The green ink featured here was created with arsenic. Hopefully the writer didn't lick his brush.
