Similia : the 1910 yearbook of the Hahnemann Medical College . bold in virtues cause it spoke, Yet gentle concord never broke ; That silent tongue shall plead for thee When time unveils eternity. Say, did these fingers delve the mine,Or, with its envied rubies shine ?To hew the rock, or wear the grinCan nothing now avail to if the page of Truth they sought,And comfort to the mourner brought,These hands a richer mead shall claimThan all that waits on wealth and fame. Beneath this mouldering canopy Once shone the bright and busy eye. But start not at the dismal void,— If social love that eye employed, If with no lawless fire it gleamed, But through the dews of kindness beamed, That eye shall be foiever bright When sun and moon have lost their light. Avails it, whether bare, or shod,These feet the paths of duty trod ?If from the bowers of ease they fledTo seek afflictions humble shed ;If grandeurs guilty bribe they spurnedAnd home to vntues cot returned,—1 hese feet with angel wings shall vie,And tread the palace of the sky.
