Greek meets Greek then comes the tug of war.” 
Let us for a time become Greeks, and meet them 
not with Greek fire, but with methods like unto 
their own. When they shall build we shall raze 
to the ground and destroy. So shall be restored 
the equilibrium lost by the introduction of the 
English sparrow. 
“Farewell, strange bird! I turn my face 
To other kind than thine — 
A thousand leagues of land and sea 
Lie twixt thy home and mine!” 
Jane, 1910.
