Here&#039;s a matching hint:

Whose woods these are I do not know
His house is in the village though
So he will not see me go 
and sign my name with yellow snow

 Found in an old National Lampoon</description>

		<description>Growing up in Portland, Maine, H.W. is my home boy. If I recall, he was one of the first students to attend Bowdoin College (Go Polar Bears). Just about every year in elementary school we would field trip to  his house for a tour. When Henry was living there, it had a great view of Casco Bay. Today it is surrounded by much higher buildings. 
We all learned about the tragic fire. I don&#039;t remember the translation so it&#039;s good to see this resurrected.

If you went to public schools in Portland, you had to memorize &quot;My Lost Youth.:

Often I think of the beautiful town
That is seated by the sea;
Often in thought go up and down
The pleasant streets of that dear old town,
And my youth comes back to me.
A boy&#039;s will is the wind&#039;s will,
And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts.
