The beauty of his better self hves on 



In minds he touched with fire, in many an eye 



He trained to Truth's exact severity; 



He was a Teacher: why be grieved for him 



Whose Hving word still stimulates the air? 



In endless file shall loving scholars come 



The glow of his transmitted touch to share. 



. Lcw^h, Agassiz.
