Stanford Quad 1Q03 I - OTHER of ten years ' labor, the lips of ivhose eldest are zvet With the milk of your ungrudged bosom, the e?id of whose bearing is set In the day that the world ' s light darkens, or the sons of your bounty forget ! You sprang, at your birth, like the goddess, mature for the ivork of your pride, But never a Mind gave you being; full-armored, with spear at your side, You stepped from the depths of a sorrow, out of hearts where the micsic had died. Though the years let us see imperfections that love must in groivth recognize, Our loyalty joys in the strength of a youth more impulsive than wise, Accepting your choice, too, if Beauty be less than the Fact in your eyes. Grave trust are you given, Mother, the last of our impotent years, To blend a man s thought with boy ' s laughter , to fit us for trial and tears ; Once for all have we learned, in your language ; we must pass from your hands to our peers ! Ten years ! Love has groivn ivith our knowledge ; through the struggles and triumphs between, Our faith has kept hold of your garment, — smile still on us, Mother, serene, While the years that shall be bring to fulness the pledge of the years that have been ! CAROLUS ACER.
