girsisgus. TO 'THE READER. Suppose that fifty years havejled, And you, with age's wintry head, . Have found this Book all worn and faded, And in its pages, musing, read. -16 il- -IG 99 -X- -K- -K Wie Past comes back, the golden time Of student-life in all its prime, The Campus and the walks elm-shaded, The echoes of the mellow chime. Once more You stand upon the Green, And 'view once more each well-known scene, While sunny memories come thronging, And old-time faces intervene. ' Old comrades true-in sport and jest, In toit and labor, first and best,- You think of them-with how much longing! Some few are left-where are the rest 3 , You turn the leaves and back to mind The records of your classmates windy- Of Tom who cut-of JACK who studied, T he joke on this, on that the grind.
