How am I throwing wrong?

I tried throwing the whole enum and then the book error. I'm not sure what i'm missing. Also, what is the difference between throws, and throw, in Swift?

error.swift 
enum BookError: ErrorType {
  case IncorrectTitle
}

func lend () throws {


throw -> BookError

}

Almost!

func lend() throws {
  throw BookError.IncorrectTitle
}

Basically, throws says the function can throw an error. throw is used to do the throwing.
