    L'Abbe de Ville proposed a toast,
    His master, as the rising Sun:
    Reisbach then gave the Empress Queen,
    As the bright moon and much praise won.
    The Earl of Stair, whose turn next came,
    Gave for his toast his own King Will,
    As Joshua the sun of Nun,
    Who made both Sun and Moon stand still.

Give me the cups,
And let the kettle to the trumpet speak,
The trumpet to the cannoneer without,
The cannons to the heavens, the heaven to earth,
'Now the king drinks to Hamlet.'

Here's to the town of New Haven,
The home of the truth and the light,
Where God speaks to Jones,
In the very same tones,
That he uses with Hadley and Dwight.

You to the left and I to the right,
For the ways of men must sever--
And read more

You to the left and I to the right,
For the ways of men must sever--
And it may be for a day and a night,
And it well may be forever.
But whether we meet or whether we part,
(For our ways are past our knowing)
A pledge from the heart to its fellow heart,
On the ways we all are going!
Here's luck!
For we know not where we are going.
