DIO. If I can't find one?

XAN. Then I'll take them.

DIO. Good. And see! they are carrying out a body now.
Hallo! you there, you deadman, are you willing

CORPSE. What are they?

DIO. These.

CORP. Two drachmas for the job?

DIO. Nay, that's too much.

CORP. Out of the pathway, you!

DIO. Beshrew thee, stop: may-be we'll strike a bargain.

CORP. Pay me two drachmas, or it's no use talking.

DIO. One and a half.

CORP. I'd liefer live again!

XAN. How absolute the knave is!
He be hanged! I'll go myself.
