Page "Minerva" Paragraph 69

* The symbol of Hornsby Girls High School, Australia, is the " Torch of Knowledge " and words of the school song include " Minerva by our southern seas her sacred groves replanted, with whispering gums to woo the breeze that flows o ' er lands enchanted ; with ageless hills she rimmed her bower, her sunlit shrine of learning, and here we keep through shine and shower the Torch of Knowledge burning ..." ( NOTE on Australianisms: gums here means " gum trees " ( eucalyptus ), not a part of the mouth ).

Here you can see a model of the Torch is still used in events.
