CORNELL i Towers celestial! whose protection Ever guards tbevirtuous fair, While in distant climes we wander, Let our Cornell be tlry care,' Let lzer graces, fair and faultless, Fair and faultless as your own, Let our Cornell 's kindred spirit Draw your clzoicest influence down. Make the gales you waft around ber Soft and peaceful as her breast, Breathing in tlze breeze that fans lzer, Sootlz her bosom into restg Guardian angels! O protect ber, W ben in distant climes we roamg To realms unknown while fate exiles us, Make ber bosom still our lzome. From Robert Bums' Mary
