ON THE ARISTOCRACY OF HARVARD

I come from good old Boston, The home of the bean and the cod; Where the Cabots speak only to Lowells, And the Lowells speak only to G.o.d!

_Dr. Samuel G. Bushnell._

ON THE DEMOCRACY OF YALE

Here's to the town of New Haven, The home of the truth and the light; Where G.o.d speaks to Jones in the very same tones, That he uses with Hadley and Dwight!

_Dean Jones._

THE HERRING

”The Herring he loves the merry moonlight And the Mackerel loves the wind, But the Oyster loves the dredging song For he comes of a gentler kind.”

_Sir Walter Scott._

IF THE MAN

If the man who turnips cries, Cry not when his father dies, 'Tis a proof that he had rather Have a turnip than his father.

_Samuel Johnson._

THE KILKENNY CATS

There wanst was two cats of Kilkenny, Each thought there was one cat too many, So they quarrell'd and fit, They scratch'd and they bit, Till, barrin' their nails, And the tips of their tails, Instead of two cats, there warnt any.
