Oh,, time; stay yot a moment, In thy flight, Nor hasten on tho coming flood of years Till wo who stand expectant on the shore Looking with eager eyes to pierce the mists That shut trom view the sorrow3 and the Joys That shall bo ours In measure full and deep May once again clasp hand and vow anew To keep the fires of friendship ever bright, To quit U3 worthy of our mentors' love, To trim our sails, no matter where tho winds, The ebb and flow of Btrong, rslitless tides May dash our barks, that when tho cnll fs made ' And wo our homo wnrd nennants holnf ninf The self-same port may meek whera shines the 'Light, - . .ww M4IIVU ...a W. .i: lit. 1111 Wherq g,!

Hnply, there may bo times when, weak and faint, The rudder from Borne nervelesi hand may Blip; Oh, weary, heartsick, one' mny sink him down In sl'imber, while tho fateful, sullen tldo Shall carry him to unknown, stngnnnt seas Where black oblivion reign;, 'supremo and, lone. But bark, a cheer! a shout off courage deep That rings In lUtlcss cars; nnd firm, strong hands Shall reach them forth, nnd he who slumbers deep Shnll wuko to find true friends who know him best Eager to set him on 'his course onco more And side by side, guide safely into port. ' Oh, friendship!
