Hymn for Dartmouth

Up with the green! Comrades, our Queen

Over the hilltops comes to convene

Liege men all to her muster.

Easy her chain! Blithe be her reign,

Queened in our heart's love, never a stain

Dimming her scutcheon's lustre!

Up with the green! God save our Queen!

Throned on the hills of her highland demesne

Royal and beautiful, wise and serene,

Our Liege Lady, Dartmouth!

So sang the heart of Richard Hovey, Dartmouth '85. Now Dartmouth wants the Hovey words set to music, and an anonymous enthusiast has offered $1,000 to any composer, regardless of creed or college, who submits the best, most fitting tune to Judges Channing Cox, '01, of Boston, onetime Governor of Massachusetts; Nelson P. Brown, '09, of Everett, Mass.; and Charles E. Griffith, '15, of Newark, N.J.
