On the bottom of the pile are modern editions—specifically, the paperback Sterling edition—of the Holy Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, both with colorful binding in the style of a blue and green stained-glass window from The Mother Church. Atop those books sits an older edition of Science and Health, with the spine denoting "Mary B. G. Eddy" as the author. At the top of the pile is a small Bible, bound in worn, dark reddish-brown leather.
