    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.

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.

Drink to me only with thine eyes,
And I will pledge with mine;
Or leave a kiss but in the cup,
And I'll not look for wine.

But might I of Jove's nectar sup,

Of loveliness alone,
A woman, of her gentle sex

I fill this cup to one made up
Of loveliness alone,
A woman, of her gentle sex
The seeming paragon;
To whom the better elements
And kindly stars have given
A form so fair that, like the air,
'Tis less of earth than heaven.

The land of the sacred cod,
There the Adamses snub the Abootts
And the Cabots walk with God.
