 SENIOR CLASS OF 23 ()n the top of a world-old mountain As the shadows began to grow. Stood a youth where thousands before Had gazed on the valley below; Like the thousands who went before him Since the days of the world l cgan. He saw only how placidly The multi-colored river ran. He saw the gold and crimson Close by the farther bank; He saw but the hues of rainbows,. (But the slime was thick and dank) ; He heard but the rippling laughter Of the brightly colored waves, (But the colors hid the quicksands That marked the thousands’ graves). And he gazed on the valley enchanted As it shone in the sun’s last rays. And it seemed like a haven of pleasure Where a mortal might guile his days. But hark ! on the wings of evening. Waking echoes of hill and dell. Stole the voice of the bell of St. Mary’s Pealing its fond farewell. “My son, I have steeled you for battle I have placed a sword in your hand: Wield true, for the cross on your bosom Marks you for my knighthood’s band Go now, for the good God wills it, But remember as you’re a man, That the love of St. Mary’s goes with you As only a mother’s can.’’ The youth drew his sword from its scabbard And proudly held it on high, “St. Mary’s, I live for the things you have taught I’ll fight for the Truth till I die.” —Maurice Bates 1 CX n-TiT«fcT»J DIAL ANAIUAL as nwtrll Thirty Six
