II.

"Arm and up--the morning beam

Hath call'd the rustic to his team,

Hath call'd the falc'ner to the lake,

Hath call'd the huntsman to the brake;

The early student ponders o'er

His dusty tomes of ancient lore.

Soldier, wake--thy harvest, fame;

Thy study, conquest; war, thy game.

Shield, that would be foeman's terror,

Still should gleam the morning's mirror.
