...sort of a place he is in, and what are the various athletic organizations which Harvard supports, and it is very likely for this reason that eighty-eight has so few representatives in the bicycle club; but this spring the freshmen are informed, and will, we hope, join their fellow bicyclers in the college. Eighty-eight has several remarkably good riders, and among its two hundred and fifty members ought to have more than the beggarly number of five, the present number of its members, in the club.

...President always expounded the chapter from the testament which was read. On Sunday, probably for variety, this exposition was omitted, and in the evening one of the students repeated from memory the sermons he had heard during the day, a practice no doubt pleasing to its victim, and his fellow sufferers.

...surprised if your grave, sedate, philosophic friend, who used to carry it so high, and talk with such a composed indifference of the beauteous sex, and whom you used to admonish not to turn an old man too soon-don't be thunderstruck if this same fellow should all at once, subito furore obreptus, commence Don Quixote for his adorable Dulcinea. I have reason to believe she has a very good opinion of me; and indeed a youth of my turn has a better chance to gain the affections of a lady of her character than any other...
