THE PURPLE AND GOLD CoeOucation VrKRII.V. a bright, jovial fellow And a maiden with pretty dresses, Whose hair is of a dark or a yellow Hue, hanging in beautiful tresses. Form the union of which we’re speaking: Subservient to order and rule— • The boy and girl who are seeking A good education at school. The world did long discard women, Who indefatigablv elevate home. Unlike the rare-ripe persimmon, Unlike the ancient, arrogant Rome, Which fell in their beauty and glory To the earth, fair woman is known From darkness to have scaled the bright story Where the light of her soul has since shone. Coeducation, binding like leather. Like the seam in the back of a coat, Bringeth two counterparts together Which for eons were very remote. The world is becoming enlightened, The “Hark Ages” forever are past; The star of our destiny has brightened With “dear mother” and “sweet home” at last. Let the girls and the boys of the nation Hie away to school hand in hand ; Indeed, since in coeducation Lie the pow’r and pride of our land. May the fop and felon be frightened. Their hegira be sudden and fast. Our nation is the grandest enlightened, Since a ballot by woman is cast! I I I I). L. S.
