"ALMA MATER"Today we gladly sing the praise of her who owns us as her sons;Our loyal voices let us raise, and bless her with our benisons.Of all fair mothers, fairest she, most wise of all that wisest be,Most true of all the true, say we, is our dear Alma Mater.The City White hath fled the earth, but where the azure waters lie,A nobler city hath its birth, the City Gray that ne'er shall die.For decades and for centuries, its battlemented tow'rs shall rise,Beneath the hope-filled western skies, 'tis our dear Alma Mater.VIII.
