Whom charity ne’er fail’d to move;

Etona’s motto, crest, and pride,

Is feeling, courage, friendship, love.

Poor harmless soul, thy merry stave

Shall live when nobler poets bend;

And when Atropos to the grave

Thy silvery locks of grey shall send,

Etona’s sons shall sing thy fame,

Ad Montem still thy verse resound,

Still live an ever-cherished name,
