Senior Clagg oem Alas, our college da.ys are o ' er. The hai py daj s of frieudship firm and true. We now regret we can en.ioy no more, The daj ' s to which we say adiex;. ' Tis true, friends must sometimes part To launch upon the stormy sea of strife; But let us ne ' er forget to view our chart. And may we safely sail through life. As we now from the port emhark. And hear the restless waves around us roar, So will our hark he guided through the dark, By ti ' uth. along the treacherous shore. We leave, to linger here no more. Since visions of the future hid us mind ; We see the heekoning hand from future shore, We leap the wa.ys of life to find. The Poet. 18
