Excerpt from An Oration Delivered Before the Class of 1859, June 24, 1859 The pleasures of hope and the pleasures of memory ought to have been written by the same person. To the child, Hope is all in all she is not half, but wholly covered with flowers, and she looks with full expectant face toward the future. As the child becomes a boy, the boy. A man, Hope turns sometimes to watch some object that she has longed for and loved, as it glides past her, by her far into the distance, and then we call her memory.
