[6] : THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993)
scrap-:book:, n.  a book that is commonly edited by a fool.  many
persons of some small distinction compile scrap-books containing
whatever they happen to read about themselves or employ others to
collect.  one of these egotists was addressed in the lines following,
by agamemnon melancthon peters:

    dear frank, that scrap-book where you boast
        you keep a record true
    of every kind of peppered roast
            that's made of you;

    wherein you paste the printed gibes
        that revel round your name,
    thinking the laughter of the scribes
            attests your fame;

    where all the pictures you arrange
        that comic pencils trace --
    your funny figure and your strange
            semitic face --

    pray lend it me.  wit i have not,
        nor art, but there i'll list
    the daily drubbings you'd have got
            had god a fist.
