With all their beady little eyes

I just noticed that the first six notes of the Olympic Hymn are the same as the first six notes of O Canada (and, except for the fourth note, even the same rhythm). No wonder they had an unfair advantage!

  2. Please harmonize either the Olympic Hymn or O Canada with at least two different bass lines, being sure not to engage in any parallel fifths or octaves.
