CYCLOPS: Well, is the dinner fitly cooked and laid? SILENUS: All ready, if your throat is ready too. CYCLOPS: Are the bowls full of milk besides? SILENUS: O'er-brimming; _195 So you may drink a tunful if you will. CYCLOPS: Is it ewe's milk or cow's milk, or both mixed?-- SILENUS: Both, either; only pray don't swallow me. CYCLOPS: By no means.-- ... What is this crowd I see beside the stalls? _200 Outlaws or thieves? for near my cavern-home I see my young lambs coupled two by two With willow bands; mixed with my cheeses lie Their implements; and this old fellow here Has his bald head broken with stripes. |
