A Rich Reward
What a noble roll-call
Of men that I knew
When they were in knicker-bockers,
Let me give them their due.
Not a single one threw an ink-pot at me
On the contrary they were always as good as can be,
What an interest it was to see Scholarship flower
Successful careers in service or power!
I give them my thanks for enriching me mind
With memories of school days in which I find
Constant renewal : that my endeavour
Has created friendship be with me ever.
