POEMS AND SONGS

Ocean would wander and warmer lands woo.
Anchored ships swinging,
Sail-thoughts outflinging ;—

Come we together, we two!

Whirling and falling,
Pictures enthralling,
Fairy-light made in the forest the snow;
Wood-folk are straying,
Shadows are playing ;—
Was it your footstep? Oh, no!

Courage is failing,
Hoar frost assailing
Boughs of your longing surrounds with its spell.
But I dare enter,
Break to the center,
Where in dream-fetters you dwell.

SONG FOR THE STUDENTS’ GLEE CLUB

Now, brothers, sing out our song,
Whose train of light shall follow long!
With love are its measures beating

And victory’s joyous greeting,
While round about it flower-seeds
In will of youth shall grow to deeds!

Our song has gone far and wide,
Bright mem’ries on our way abide,
