st: loop with global marco

Hello,
I defined 3 global macros, each of them containing the names of
variables: (... means there are a lot more variables in it)
global var1 "hope truth..."
global var2 "life death..."
global var3 "never loose..."
Now I want to summarize the global macros in blocks with:
foreach x of global var1 var2 var3 {
su `x'
}
But it does not work, it always runs through all variables without
creating blocks. What is the problem?
-Nick
