| --- shabby! |
| Worn and shabby |
| Creased the sheet |
| Marked by a reader |
| No longer pristine |
| Bookmarked, in a way |
| Marked for later use |
| With corners turned down |
| Turned down at the corner |
| Often turned down, in a way |
| Bent over, as a page corner |
| Like pages worth bookmarking |
| Worn, as the pages of a book. |
| Turned down for easy reference |
| Like a used paperback, perhaps |
| Like the pages of a much-handled book |
| Turned down at the corners, as a page. |
| Like a well-read page in a favorite book |
| (Of pages) having corners turned down or worn |
