"WHEN GREEK MEETS GREEK;"

Or, Manoeuvring for a Hold.

Ye who have read in HOMER's mighty song

How sage ULYSSES, AJAX towering strong,

Met at the funeral games on Trojan sands,

With knotted limbs and grip of sinewy hands,

To wrestle for the prize, attend, draw near,

And a new tale of coming tussle hear!

When great ACHILLES called them to the lists,

Those men of massive thews and ponderous fists,
