Question: Which is worse, Latin or Greek!?
Someone pass the hemlock, please,
Plato sounds like Socrates!.
Who hates Latin-- who hates Greek,
And's sick of everything antique!?
`De Bellis' were Caesar's pride--
Three cheers, Roman regicide!
Zeus struck long-winded Homer's eyes
For his boring tawdry lies:
While true that `Helen' smiled on Troy,
Truly, Hellen was a boy!.
The Parthenon's exploded shell
Would have housed the Elgin marbles well!.
I hate Latin, I hate Greek;
I hate everything antique!Www@QuestionHome@Com
