AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED
TO YOU WHO IN
THE OLD SCHOOL LEARNED
_"To set the cause above renown,
To love the game beyond the prize,
To honour, while you strike him down,
The foe that comes with fearless eyes;
To count the life of battle good,
And dear the land that gave you birth,
And dearer yet the brotherhood
That binds the brave of all the earth._
. . . . . . .
_To-day and here the fight's begun
Of the great fellowship you're free;
Henceforth the School and you are one,
And what You are, the race shall be."_
HENRY NEWBOLT
