FACULTY PUZZLE.

Page 28 text:

Omar for the Alumnus 1. Lo, n ight hath dropped her sable wings once more. As several thousand times she ' s ' done before ; And Revellers gather in the Banquet Hall, To swap the ancient bon mots known of yore. 2. From far and near come devotees to sit. And listen to what passeth well for Wit; Wit once mayhap, but now the Yellow Leaf — Yet fresh, full-blooming, dull, no, not a whit. .•J. Far from the Happy Days when we did con Those queer-shaped, ugly marks of Xenophun, When Horace caused our Heads to sadly bum, And General Casar day by day marched on. 4. And when great Julius had passed in review Old Euclid would appear with sometliing new; Bran-new to me, yet old as are the stars — To bring his own fresh Heartaches not a few. 5. How well do I recall those ancient days, When Doctor Wliarton sang his Roman lays, As seated on our Ponies we did ride To victory or to Death — ' twas but a graze. 6. Or seated in Professor Stubbs ' s Pew, With boards of black and Jletric Charts in view ; .Just after one short slumbrous Dinner Hour, To hear him say — So you are flunking too? 7. Or up in Dr. Tyler ' s room, where hold The Sages and Philosophers of old — Where Syllogisms trod their solemn March, Oh, all that glistens brightly is not Gold. 8. A Book of Horace underneath the Tree, A ' ith Senior Math., and French enough for Three — All buzzing through a much beclouded Brain, Oh, sawing wood were Paradise for me! 9. Some say that Learning is a dangerous thing Vhen taken in small sips from that great Spring, But if the Masters want to make you drink. Why, go ahead and let them have their fling, — 10. De mortuis nil nisi ianum, I Have always said this maxim should apply; But why on earth did Livy ever live, And why should Epicurus ever die? 11. Some things there are of which you ' ve never heard. As De guiding truant pupils who have erred ; Some twigs are bent the way that Trees incline,— For information see Professor Bird.
