When youth, with It's Joy and light,
Has blossomed into noontide
And Is bordering on to night
And OF morning naught remalneth
Save memOry'S fading rays.
Our thoughts VIII fondly linger
Ger these happy by-gonc days.
And among the falrest pictures
Hanging stlll on memory'S wall,
The dear old district school house
VIII be cherished most OF all:
And the faces OF our schOOlmateS
VIII be ever fresh and fair,
Though many year shall intervene
Since olir last gathering there.
And each familiar shadow
As It fllts along The wall,
win be bound with golden letters
In mOmory's sylvan hall
And each lovely yellow sunbeam
AS Il SlantS across the floor,
WIN be CHANGING just as lightly
AS IL glanced III Gays OF yOrc.
And the sad and lonely feelings
That are caused by parting here
VIII but add to future pleasure
And make happiness more dear;
But my teacher and companions
Though this parting gives us pain,
Let us hope that in the future
We may all unite again.
