'''Adapted from [[#Julia]]'''
A point of interest in adapting the approach taken in the Julia entry is that, since jq strings for interpolating variables are not themselves JSON strings, the special case of "ς" must be handled differently.

Θε κυικ βροων φοξ ιυμπεδ οβερ θε λαζυ δογ.
I was looking at some rhododendrons in my back garden,
dressed in my khaki shorts, when the telephone rang.

As I answered it, I cheerfully glimpsed that the July sun
caused a fragment of black pine wax to ooze on the velvet quilt
laying in my patio.
=>
Aσ I ανσωερεδ ιτ, I χηρφυλλυ γλιμψεδ θατ θε Iυλυ συν

sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.
