I. Teach me to be obedient to the rules of the game.
II. Teach me to distinguish between sentiment and sentimentality admiring one and despising the other.
III. Teach me neither to proffer nor receive cheap praise.
IV. If I am called to suffer, let me be like a well bred beast that goes away to suffer in silence.
V. Teach me to win, if I may; If I may not win then above all teach me to be a good loser.
VI. Teach me neither to cry for the moon nor over spilt milk.
