Humphreys replied with two successful kicks before the Scottish side were reduced to 14 men when prop Jon Welsh was sin-binned in the 31st minute.
The home side took advantage of their numerical advantage when Court barged over for a 35th-minute try, with the help of Willie Faloon and Chris Henry.
Humphreys converted to make it 13-3 but Parks knocked over his second penalty to reduce his side's deficit to six in atrociously wet and windy conditions.
The Glasgow fly-half landed four penalties in the first 20 minutes of the second period and then Evans raced over in the corner with 13 minutes left after good work by Scotland captain Chris Cusiter, on as a replacement.
