THE GRADATIM M $ M To the Seniors Not now regret, nor sudden hurting dread, No trembling foot upon the road ' s expanse. What though today fond yesterdays are dead. The sky above is cloudless. In advance Beyond the white road ' s turn the heights arise. And scaling them for you brooks no delay. No gloomy fear lurks in your smiling eyes, And June ' s rose-wealth is all your own today. But wait till Omar ' s bird has flown the pace Of ten swift years, then looking fondly back. You ' ll wish with all your heart you could retrace The pathway o ' er. What changes you would make In that same road that now you long to take. But few the deeds you would wish to efface. If now you heed the lessons that are taught. Then at each trial you ' d spurn whate ' er is base. And cling to worthwhile things, and count as naught The golden dross or baubles fondly sought. Be yours to hold the fort with courage rare. Though skies above be cloudy or be blue. Sometimes indeed the valley will be fair. And oft the hill will rise too steep for you. What matters it, if you can keep the song. That all your heart is singing forth today. Not only at the dawn, but all day long, And make all dragging hours a fragrant May. If you be ever true, on that great day. When God shall seek His own. then each can say. I ' ve followed precepts given and so have won. These words of praise from God. ' My child, well done. Page Eleven 19 3 4
