HUMPHREY DAVY FINDLEY KITTO(1897-1982)

Greeks did that, Greeks did this,

all better than anyone else

and invented everything

that had been invented before.

There were no history,

no literature,

no drama,

no true art before the Greeks...

The typical way the adopted

Teutonic sons praise

their Greek forefathers

to praise themselves through them.

Yet, there was one saving grace -

against the sin of Cambridge

there were the long decades of

Glasgow and Bristol.
