"Almost as good, in fact, as my own people before
we withdrew to play the role of Greece to your
Rome."
The Greeks didn't withdrew. Pushed aside by the Romans,
they became a nation of aesthetes. Very *refined* aesthetes,
if you know what I mean. Thats' why Housman, Wilde and
the choice Oxonians were such good hellenists.
