Alma Mater Speaks Oli, find me ail isle ill the far Southern seas Whence never return can be sought, Where a live young volcano brings up to the breeze The hell that our fathers have bought And caught! The hell that our fathers have bought. There needn’t be trees ; and I don’t demand grub. Hot asphalt will do for the turf. Let the shores all be steep, and the one harbor deep, That sharks may disport in the surf,— And Durf With the sharks may disport in the surf. And buy me a boat with wliat assets are left (You are right [ they are little I ween ■.) But it needn’t be large, be it schooner or barge, ' So long as it shelters fourteen Wits keen — So long as it shelters fourteen. Then Til take that sweet Faculty, bearing my name And Noah them down to the ark.; I’ve long craved a change, and they need wider range For their talents long hid in the dark. Poor (lark ! For their talents long hid in the dark. Then ho, for a breeze to those far Southern seas And (excepting that distant ealhay 1) Perhaps I’ll find brains in the breadth of the world To fill the chairs- emptied to-day. Hurray 1 To fill the chairs emptied lo-day. 21
