When a handsome young fellow named Pytho, who belonged to one of the aristocratic families in Macedonia, was quizzing him, putting a catchquestion to him and asking him to tell the logical answer, he said: I know thus much, my boy its a poser, and so are you!” Enraged at the pun, the other said threateningly: I'll show you in short order that youve a man to deal with!”

v.1.p.155
whereupon Demonax laughingly inquired: Oh, you will send for your man, then?”
