His blood running hot, a trace of sweat on his brow, Sir Winston was moved almost to tears at the reunion's climax when the Harrow boys chorused a familiar version of the school song in his honor: "Nor less we praise in darker days/ The leader of our nation,/ And Churchill's name shall win acclaim...
