Excerpt from Consolatio: Ode in Memory of Those Members of the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Three of Standford University Who Died During the Month of Their Graduation
UT ah, she waits; and why Is sober youth's reply Delayed, while doubts op press His natural eagerness? Why does the pageant, at the gate Where myriad hopes and longings wait, Pause, as though stricken by some shatter ing fate? While some, in mute distress, Look to and fro, as for a comrade's face, When none is marching in his vacant place.
