Let the soldier be abroad if he will; he can do nothing
in this age. There is another personage abroad, -- a person less
imposing, -- in the eyes of some, perhaps, insignificant. The
schoolmaster is abroad; and I trust to him, armed with his
primer, against the soldier in full military array.
Brougham.
2. One who, or that which, disciplines and
directs.
The law was our schoolmaster, to bring us unto
Christ. Gal. iii. 24.
