Class Ode. In days gone by, we longed for thee, 0 year Of freedom from our Alma Mater's walls; But now when thou hast brought us to our goal Fain would we turn time's fleeting moments back. 'Tis gone, the time of happy college life 'Tis gone, the time which we have learned to love. Soon separation's cruel hour must come To take, perhaps fore'er, our dearest friends. Thou guardian of our youthful days, farewell, Farewell dear friends we've learned so well to know With grief and pain each graduate pursues Alone and sad his sep'rate way to-where? Oh, where, thou waiting destiny unknown? Through wild and stormy seas or calmer waves; Where'er thou call, whatever be our fate, Guide us we pray in Honor's spotless way. 85
