Yes, they marveled, the professors, At their learned class discussions, Marveled e'en the best professors Of the old Nebraska Law School. So the profs all planned together How to test these first year law men, And they fixed up tough and knotty Technical examinations. But the freshmen waded through them, Thus confirmed their reputation By their high and well-earned markings At the old Nebraska Law School. VVell they pleased, did these same freshmen, Costigan and Pound and VVilson, Under whom they had so labored Through the first semesterls school work. Ayres and Hastings though will join them In expressing this opinion, 'fNever was before their equal At the old Nebraska Law School. So we see these freshmen rising Through the different years and classesg Iuniors next and then as seniors VVill they work their way undaunted Till their college work is ended, Till we see them all presented VVell-earned and deserved diplomas By the old Nebraska Law School. Then they ,ll scatter as they gathered, Different lands and states will claim themg Some will follow their profession, Others different lines will follow.- But when pressed with years and trouble They will oft reflect with pleasure Upon their entrance here as freshmen ln the old Nebraska Law School. 72 -H.
