When he tried the Greeking o’t.

Wi’ mony a wrench and mony a screw,

At last he warstled bravely through,

All except a tense or two,

When he tried the Greeking o’t!

How he fared with ἣ and ἄν

When he tried the Greeking o’t.

Δὴ and γε, and all their clan,

It’s weel worth the speaking o’t.

These feckless dots of words, quo’ he.
