MATER FORTISSIMA.

PHI BETA KAPPA POEM, JUNE 25, 1903.

AGAIN the song the fathers sang before us!

The cheer that rings through voice and heart again!
The multitudinous triumphant chorus !

The mighty mother marshaling her men !

"Come-for behold the East and West are merging;
The frozen Arctic greets the scorching Line;
Come, like the waves on strong New England surging;
Come, for to-day the seas and skies are mine!"

"Go forth," she cries, "from strength to strength forever;
Serve me by serving God and man," she saith;

66 Steadfast, upright, of strong and high endeavor,
Fear nothing, and be faithful unto death."
