Ha, ha, the Greeking o’t!
English he could hardly spell,
But what’s that to the Greeking o’t?
English fits the vulgar clan,
The buying and the selling man,
But for the learned the only plan
Is a close grip at the Greeking o’t.
How he wandered through the verb,
It pains my tongue the speaking o’t,
He said it was a bitter herb,
