In order, my good sir, that the defendants, being present a day before, might compromise the matter of their own accord; but if not,
that they might be worried on the morning of the new moon.
Strepsiades.
Why, then, do the magistrates not receive the deposits on the new moon, but on the Old and New?
Phidippides.
They seem to me to do what the forestallers do: in order that they may appreciate the deposits as soon as possible, on this account they have the first pick by one day.
