Boasting is abolished,
Competition tucked away,
Thirty-two have fallen,
Now its time to pray.

Things seem so trivial,
Large problems shrink to small,
In this time of mourning,
Who cares about football?

Hokies, if you need a friend,
You know right where we are.
Aggies will continue to send,
Prayers for you from our hearts.

With weeping hearts and teary eyes,
Please accept this rhyme,
From a place of knowing empathy,
Soulely, you require time.

Muster Tradition:

quote:

---

Roll Call for the Absent

In many lands and climes this April day
Proud sons of Texas A&M unite.
Our loyalty to country, school, we pray,
and seal our pact with bond of common might.

We live again those happy days of yore
on campus, field, in classroom, dorm, at drill
Fond memory brings a sigh -- but nothing more;
Now we are men and life’s a greater thrill,

On Corregidor * years ago today
A band of gallant Aggies, led by Moore,
Held simple rites which led to us doth all to say:
The spirit shall prevail through cannon roar.

Before we part and go upon our way,
We pause to honor those we knew so well;
The old familiar faces we miss so much today
Left cherished recollections that time cannot dispel.

Softly call the Muster,
Let comrade answer, “Here!”
Their spirits hover ‘round us
As if to bring us cheer!

Mark them ‘present’ in our hearts.
We’ll meet some other day
There is no death, but life etern
For our old friends such as they!

by Dr. John Ashton c/o 1906
