added the song

We greet them with a song.

From [http://www.williams.edu/home/about_traditions.php the Williams Web page]:

:THE MOUNTAINS

:O, proudly rise the monarchs of our mountain land,

:With their kingly forest robes, to the sky,

:Where Alma Mater dwelleth with the chosen band,

:And the peaceful river floweth gently by.

:CHORUS

:The mountains! the mountains! we greet them with a song,

:Whose echoes rebounding their woodland heights along,

:Shall mingle with anthems that winds and fountains sing.

:'til hill and valley gaily, gaily ring.

:Beneath their peaceful shadows may old Williams stand,

:'til suns and mountains nevermore shall be,

:The glory and the honor of our mountain land,

:And the dwelling of the gallant and the free.

This was written by Washington Gladden, Williams class of 1859.
