They held the gate. So sad.

Grenn, what a legend. His speech gave me goosebumps, and the whole rallying his comrades was so perfect.

Here is is for anyone who wants to rewatch his glorious moment:

GRRM says it is one of his favorite things he has ever written.

Night gathers, and now my watch begins.
It shall not end until my death.

I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children.
I shall wear no crowns and win no glory.
I shall live and die at my post.

I am the sword in the darkness.
I am the watcher on the walls.
I am the shield that guards the realms of men.

I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, 
for this night and all the nights to come.

In the books the oath has few extra lines:

Night gathers, and now my watch begins.
It shall not end until my death.

I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children.
I shall wear no crowns and win no glory.
I shall live and die at my post.

I am the sword in the darkness.
I am the watcher on the walls.

I am the fire that burns against the cold,
the light that brings the dawn,
the horn that wakes the sleepers,
the shield that guards the realms of men.

I pledge my life and honour to the Night's Watch,
for this night and all the nights to come.

Plus, there is the badass eulogy they say whenever a brother dies:

And now his watch is ended.
