Davidson College Campus ; (rem the Cupola after Sunset. I low i;r:icct il ' neath the stci-1-hluc sky Tliinc ancient elms do l.ciid, To the evening calm unspeakable Their silent charm to lend! Thy mighty oaks, with gnar ' .i d limls. How jiroud they tower on high! As along their thick-bark ' d. hoary trunks Wanders the admiring eve. As the twilight steals o ' er the evening air And the scene to me grows dim, A river of love from my heart breaks forth And causes my eyes to swim. Ob. 1 line Uiy balls and classic walls! To me they ' 11 lie sacred fore ' er. For 1 know that my heart must grow more and more fond As time rolls year upon year. But. how graceful still ' neath twilight sky I see thy great elms bend — Mv hopes arc yours, old Davidson, Are with vou to the end. i8
