Comrades Comrades we were, and comrades still, Altho within thy pleasant gates Are other places now to fill — The vacant places of the Fates. Fond memory turns me back again To those two years of joyous life, Which all too soon were pased and — then For me, the sterner call to strife. Oh college years — how calm, how bright; How like a dream they passed away! Two years have sunk to sleep in night; In memory now they wake to-day. My friends of then, my friends still are, Each tie is cherished in my heart, Tho time doth scatter us afar, In memory never will we part. One home, one life those years we spent. And then each cherished tie to sever — Oh what a pang that break has meant ; To me alone ' tis known forever. But comrades were we, then and now, And comrades still we shall remain, Tho we to Fate ' s decree must bow And maybe never meet again.

For friends must meet and friends must part, And hearts with joy must ever glow When thus they feel within them start The wells of love for friends they know. But each to his or her reward Must travel on the road of life, Unhelped, unaided, save by the sword, Which each must carry to the strife. But tho the gathering mist of age May bring with it its toils untold; Yet in this life, to me no page Will be more dear than that doth hold The memories fond of comrades true, Of friendships formed in those two years, When we were drawn as but a few Are drawn to share their joys and fears. Then may we on life ' s battlefield As comrades still go hand in hand; Each ready to uphold and shield Our college dear to all the land. To duty ' s roll-call ever hark — ■ Our very life to duty lend — Till the last reveille shall mark A wondrous day that knows no end. O. H. S., ' 08. 19
