The manuscripts are great, but your national treasure isn't the 
manuscripts, it's what was written in them.

Men die, Horses die,
(and parchment eventually dies too, although it takes longer)

I hope they get the museum opened again. My favorite thing in it, on 
a long ago visit, was a case full of hacksilber. Museums, for some 
reason, are unwilling to let you take their jewellery apart to see 
how it is made, so it is nice when someone else has done it for you.
