Farewell... We're parting to-night from the friends of our youth, We part from the school our valor inspired. It quickened our zeal and our love for truth, And always our faint heart to fervor it fired. We shall ever admire, as this moment we do, All the bounteous wisdom and worth of her name; Her children will stay to her memory true While deeds of devotion add light to her fame. When worries and cares that the future may hold Bring furrows of age and regret to our brow, We'll come back in fancy to dear days of old And smile at our dreaming as happy as now. While the shadows of sorrow shall all fade away In the light of our yesterday's glow, Down memory's lane in the cool twilight gray Turn back to the school days of long, long ago.

Pledge... (With Apologies to Gray) The school bell chimes for this our parting day; The graduates wind slowly up the aisle, And sit upon the stage in glad array To gain the tribute of a loving smile. Now fades the glittering pageant on the sight And all the air anticipation holds, To hear our swan song on this happy night, Ere distant wandering our way enfolds. For us no more the midnight oil shall burn, Or Senior hearts be bowed by care; Will dread no more each Monday morn's return, Or strain of dread examinations share. Ambition smiled upon our fruitful toil, Our youthful joys, our efforts to surpass, And Grandeur heard—and did forbear to smile— The short and simple annals of our class. Perhaps among our little group there may Be hearts illuminated with celestial fire, Hands that the rod of government may sway, Or voices that will souls of men inspire. We'll go our way with confidence serene, The dark, unfathomed trials of life to bear And none of us intend to blush unseen Or waste our sweetness on the desert air. Like knights of old we pledge with dauntless breast The tyrant of injustice to withstand. Till wrongs are righted, we shall never rest, But strive till peace and plenty fill the land. No further seek our merits to disclose, Or tell our deeds of worth by others seen. Our hearts, through summer suns or winter snows, Shall keep their memory forever green.
