VARIUM ET MUTABILE, by                    
First Line: I saw her going to the game
Last Line: Her yellow scarf was lined with blue.
Subject(s): Princeton University; Yale University


I SAW her going to the game,
Her eyes were bright, her cheeks aflame,
And o'er her shoulders lightly fell
A Princeton scarf, her choice to tell.

I saw her when the game was o'er,
A loyal Nassau maid no more;
To Yale, the victor, now she's true --
Her yellow scarf was lined with blue.
