Mighty are the Universities of Scotland, and they will prevail.
But even in your highest exultations never forget that they are
not four, but five. The greatest of them is the poor, proud
homes you come out of, which said so long ago: 'There shall be
education in this land.' She, not St. Andrews, is the oldest
University in Scotland, and all the others are her whelps.
In bidding you good-bye, my last words must be of the lovely
virtue. Courage, my children and 'greet the unseen with a cheer.'
'Fight on, my men,' said Sir Andrew Barton. Fight on--you--
for the old red gown till the whistle blows.
End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Courage, by J. M. Barrie
