To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The world outside is cold. We know not what to expect from its bleak, bare atmosphere. "Leaves are sear, And flowers are dead, and fields are drear, And streams are wild, and skies are bleak, And white with snow each mountain's peak, When Winter rules the year. " But we must never forget that tomorrow we will all enter into a renewal of life in a glad, bright, glorious new Spring time, Freshmen in life's school, as green and fresh again as we put forth our new shoots as ever we seemed at school.... We may be hazed by the world just as unmercifully as ever a Sophomore dared, but we know it will be to prove the value of our training and to give us a chance to demonstrate how very much we are alive. We must not, like children, "Grieve as if for aye Leaves, flowers and birds were past away ; For buds and blooms will again be seen, And fields be gay and hills be green, " in the Spring time beckoning us away. And so we go forth, robed in the snowy emblem of our purification, no longer green, nor red, nor even blue, For the last year satisfying, Must all shadows safely blow ; Senior life is purifying, And we pass as white as snow !
