I think both the German clergy and other leaders for Victimizing these people, as well as the American public for allowing such mischief.
"A Stake in the Land"
Peter Alexander Speek
And thus the American cow-bird outcuckoos the cuckoo as an "attendant on the spring," taking her pick among the nurseries of featherdom, now Victimizing the oriole by a brief sojourn in the swinging hammock in the elm, here stopping a moment to leave her charge to the care of an indigo-bird, to-morrow creeping through the grass to the secreted nest of the Maryland yellow-throat, or Wilson's thrush, or chewink.
"My Studio Neighbors"
William Hamilton Gibson
By the time the sleigh drove up to the door she was as bent as ever upon Victimizing the "Western giant," as the conspirators had named him.
"From Jest to Earnest"
E. P. Roe
