Strange that the error message is referring to line 4 while in the script shown the offending line is 3.
I guess the script is called launch, and the do has a trailing DOS line terminator (<CR> or \r or 0X0D) making the error's ' wrap back to begin-of-line. What editor did you produce that script with?

augenrules
AUGENRULES:(8) System Administration Utilities AUGENRULES:(8)
NAME
augenrules - a script that merges component audit rule files
SYNOPSIS
augenrules [--check] [--load]
DESCRIPTION
augenrules is a script that merges all component audit rules files, found in the audit rules directory, /etc/audit/rules.d, placing the
merged file in /etc/audit/audit.rules. Component audit rule files, must end in .rules in order to be processed. All other files in
/etc/audit/rules.d are ignored.
The files are concatenated in order, based on their natural sort (see -v option of ls(1)) and stripped of empty and comment (#) lines.
The last processed -D directive without an option, if present, is always emitted as the first line in the resultant file. Those with an
option are replicated in place. The last processed -b directive, if present, is always emitted as the second line in the resultant file.
The last processed -f directive, if present, is always emitted as the third line in the resultant file. The last processed -e directive,
if present, is always emitted as the last line in the resultant file.
The generated file is only copied to /etc/audit/rules.d, if it differs.
OPTIONS
--check
test if rules have changed and need updating without overwriting audit.rules.
--load load old or newly built rules into the kernel.
FILES
/etc/audit/rules.d/ /etc/audit/audit.rules
SEE ALSO
audit.rules(8), auditctl(8), auditd(8).
