Ennobled by true service, graced by thoughts
And deeds of kindness which the world hears not.
A quiet presence, with that tranquil way
Which somehow in the midst of rush and toil
Betokens power, all this was not unfelt
As years slipped by, and wo but slowly learned
To love the Alma Mater as our home.
AVo know t'.iero was a gontlo, queenly care,
A going to and fro in our behalf,
A smilo and welcome over for tho guest,
Kind, friendly counsel, hidden all tho while
Tho will which guided, moulded, made obey.
Bid wo forget? or fail to lot our lips
Break through tho noiso with one low word of praise?
Forgive us. More than praise wo must bestow.
How other might it bo than that a life,
So gracious, so devout in helpfulness
Should speak through other lives, and gain reward
In hotter thoughts and deeds tho world around.
