en The hills,
Rock-ribbed, and ancient as the sun, -- the vales
Stretching in pensive quietness between;

In majesty, and the complaining brooks
That make the meadows green; and, poured round all,
Old Ocean's gray and melancholy waste, --
Are but the solemn decorations all
Of the great tomb of man.

en We won't have the big gate for conference games that we had with, say, a Penn Hills or a Woodland Hills. That is a big concern.
