IF YOU SPOKE AT GLASGOW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?

The students of Glasgow University have long had a tradition of poking holes in pomposity. In particular, when visiting dignitaries come for honorary degrees. In fact, they arm themselves with peashooters and raucous calls.
A long time ago, when the great missionary David Livingston returned to his native land after eighteen years in Africa, he came to Glasgow to be made a Doctor of Laws. The students prepared for his arrival with typical glee.

However, his appearance on the rostrum gained him an unusual attention. “I am going back,” were his first words. Gaunt and wrinkled by twenty-seven fevers, burned black by the sun, one arm dangling useless at his side from the bite of a lion, a quiet intensity seemed to swell from him like a living thing, and it produced an unprecedented silence and show of respect.

“Shall I tell you what sustained me amidst the toil, hardships and loneliness of my exiled life? It was Christ’s promise, Lo! I am with you always even unto the end.”
