tTHE AEGIS, VOL. XXXVI And had not a care for the stinking fen And the eager, loathsome Death That lay in wait for North-born men W'ith fevered breath. VVith a laugh they went To the fate of men. And some set off to the WVest. On their lips a jest They went to the shaggy hills And the wild and lawless lands, WVhere it's face to face and man to man, And only the strongest stands, Where it's shoulder hard against the load And daring and fight and brawn And only the best lights on. With a jest they went To thegame of men. And some fared forth to the East. VVith hearts that were glad and free And a cheer ringing clear, They went down to the open sea, Where the stately ships sail out,- And some are seen no moreg Where it's face to winds andthe lashing spray In the teeth of the tempest's roarg Where it's dark and the night and the waves and the storm, And the pounding wheel takes threeg Where it's man's strength and the skill of man Against the.strength of the sea. VVith a cheer they went To the life of men. Her sons fared forth to the ends of the earth, Wherever was work to dog Because of her sturdy worth Were they trueg And they fought where the light was thickest, Scorning to count the costg ' They toiled and sweat and won like men, And joyous returned to the game againg Like men they struggled and lostg And ever the love ,of the Mother Each kept in his loyal heart. So a toast, ye men of Dertmozztlz! Come, drink to the Illother fairj And thunder her name till the northern Rexounzi lo a Norlhmaniv prayerj A Zoast, a toaxt to Dartmouth! To our Nlother, rich and rare! hill: R. T. PEARL

She gathered her sons together And called them around her knee To send them forth to the world of men, To defeat or victoryg And she whispered to each: Be loyal 5 She whispered: Nor ever yield 3 And H XVith it or on it, she whispered, As she gave each one his shield. She gathered her sons together And sent them forth to the fray, To the life of men, to the strife of meng To defeat or victoryg She gathered her sons together And sent them forth with a smile.
