For when you get bored of doing reminders...
For him that stealeth a Book from this Library, let it change into a serpent
in his hand and rend him. Let him be struck with Palsy, and all his Members
blasted. Let him languish in Pain crying aloud for Mercy and let there be no
sur-cease to his Agony till he sink in Dissolution. Let Bookworms gnaw his
Entrails in token of the Worm that dieth not, and when at last he goeth to
his final Punishment, let the flames of Hell consume him for ever and aye.

Maybe an updated one could be commissioned for Halloween against those with
an over-dependence on Google...
