    If you had made the acquiring of ignorance the study of your life, you could not have graduated with higher honor than you could to-day.

    There is no pleasure pure and simple, and some care always
    comes to mar our joys.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;
    Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see
    A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
    And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she
    sings.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
