Disillusionment

I met him last vacation down in Maine,
A self-made man, a multi-millionaire.
Hearing I taught at Yale, he made it plain
He wished to know me; hoped that I would share
His speedy yacht with him. With friendly mien
He gave me cushioned seat in limousine.
Quite free with his cigars (they were the best)
He oft entreated me to set him right.
“Tell me what I must read,” he plead with zest,
“Just put me wise and I’ll sit up all night.
Come, tip me off. What books should I enjoy
Would you just coach me?” Would I? ’Aaaboy!

...

Scarce had term opened when he wrote to me
(Cigars, I add, accompanied the letter).
He said he’d done the books and wished to see
Another list, the longer one, the better.
Let Sophomores yawn and sadly eye their wrist
Watches. Here’s one who knows what he has missed.
To-day I found a letter in my box.
It bore his mark. How eagerly he sought
Wisdom. Yet on the Campus there are flocks
Of students fighting hard lest they be taught.
I knew his old request—’Twas not the same!
_He wished ten tickets for the Harvard game._
