Wakes on the morn of its hundredth year
Without both feeling and looking queer.

So far as I know, but a tree and truth.”

Smiling, in faulty grammar,
She praised my fortune and urged my lofty career.
So to please her I studied—but I will remember always
How she poured confusion out, how she cooled and labeled
All the wild sauces of the brimming year.”
