Make your mark upon the world!
The marker comes from here.
March on life with flags unfurled!
Your provenance is clear. You are our product, carrying
The sanction of our seal.
We are your foundry, marrying
Our knowledge to your zeal. What you make of it is yours,
But it is also ours.
For what you do beyond our doors
Documents our powers. Do it well, for both of us!
Our fates are intertwined.
Make your mark, for only thus
Might we sweet favor find.
