Ivy Oration Mildred B. Robinson This ivy now we plant in memory Of days we spent in study and in play. And to this school which we have loved so well We leave this token of our gratitude. Then may it grow and like our thoughts still cling To these brick walls wherein we spent Four years, the happiest that we ever knew. Some branches climb much higher than the rest Which grow content in lowly atmosphere. Just so shall we divide and spread abroad, From east to west and north to distant south. And while we strive to show ourselves approved, These ivy-covered walls will shelter more Who all too soon must part and bid adieu To H. S. to charter courses new. We, too, will say, Farewell. Good luck to you. 29
