Senior Class Poem How soitly dies the Intsy tlayl No sign ni Agony, no stir Js iisihle, and all the world Seems peaceful irt the arms of God. Yon might}' beast of iron, in Whose tawny breast so lately roared Inhuman breath, lie mute and adds His silence to the evening calm. The birds have quit their caroling And, nestled by their feathery mates, Hear naught but the low heaving of Their mated breasts. Lo! in the West 'Hie silent sentinel of peace. Stern watchman o’er the natal hour Of night, bids quietness to reign And minds to dwell on holy tilings, 0 Life! my passioned soul finds here The secret of its longing. Deep Into its anxious depths it drinks 'Phis new-found balm, this stranger peace. Let Manhood’s mellow Jays, when Spring lias ripened into Summer’s calms. When Youths unsteady fire has changed To flameless glow, let them not mar This scene, but bring upon thetr wings 1 he glory of eternal Hope,
