Senior Class Poem 0 1 ciiior class, thou that passeth four years trying toil and fire, l' er groping, ever hoping, approacheth Wisdom now a trifle nigher; '1 hou strange mixture of calm and sturdy toil and mad and shamless self-conccit, C f all of Nature’s awing paradoxes thou art truly hard to beat; 'I hou hast completed a monument more lasting than brass, aye, than memory or words or rocks, hicli can never be destroyed by winds nor years nor the storm-king’s ven-geant despoiling shocks; It can never, never, wholly die, but must follow to thy last, On every hand, each time afresh, thy monument—relentless, changeless past; Whcie’er thou turnest thy venturous foot, What’er attainest, What’er thou dost essay, 1 hy monument’s unending boundless shade doth alway mark and fix thy way. As now thou steppest forth and Ieavest the training path, thy hard-earned credits won. And entcrest then the final test, the common race of Life we all must run, ' av Future’s kindliest mood behold thy monument’s index shade willingly bless Thy honest effort, and Life's so trying race with Fortune’s crown success.
