Bride's House is the burned — the 'Faulkner read' that's the library's fame, the '1942' that's the fire's year. The 'poems survived' is the found — the 'ruins searched' that's the '52's dig, the 'bundles' that's the rescued's form. The 'Marble Faun' is the printed — the '500 copies' that's the run's size, the 'didn't sell' that's the irony's sting.
The 'Stone mentored' is the linked — the 'Phil' that's the friend's name, the 'arranged' that's the publishing's help. The 'bride named' is the gifted — the 'Avant built' that's the '59's start, the 'wedding' that's the name's source. Bride's House is the gone — the 'elementary' that's the site's now, the 'worth thousands' that's the books' price.
