To Miss Dukas I hand today
The Honorary Cross of Gallantry
With grace she managed to keep her demeanor
When it was hard even for the seniors
Never did a task deter her
That would’ve done in many another
‹And she always held her tongue›
To ‹stay› keep mum she was even willing
Despite the inner boiling and seething.

Has every reason to be proud today
This we can attest of her, all three.
Whatever is vile in the present
Memory makes lighter and quite pleasant.
	A. Einstein, 3 August 1942
