. Syllabus. former to a field did give his name,Where many stronge youthes played in just this side, upon a grassy knoll,Hough searched out stars—and sometimes called the rollIn class, where students had ful muche play;They answered present when some were , too, for each who did not Hough among the swinging stars did goIn thought. But ever and again hed cry,Now, if youll only stop and think—and try,Youll soon discover all the truth and beAs great and wise astronomer as me. Last, playing on a harp, came a minstrel ;Ful loud he played ; none played so wildly wel,Unless it mighte be that IsrafelOf whom poor Edgar Allan Poe did when Dean Lutkin struck his harpe swelling music my glad heart did greet !For through the air came the triumphant strainOf profs, a-chanting the joyous refrain,Gloria in Excelsis, our task is oer,And Jubilate, for we work no moreUntil September breezes come again,Te deum laudamus. Amen, Amen. —G. J. C.
