Hermes

Receive these people, Tisiphone-a thousand and four.

Tisiphone

Indeed, Rhadamanthos here has been waiting for you a long time.

Rhadamanthos

Bring them forward, Erinnys. You, Hermes, officiate as herald and summon them.

Kyniskos

Rhadamanthos, in the name of your father, produce me and examine me first.

Rhadamanthos

Why?

Kyniskos

I have a great desire to accuse some one of the evil deeds I know he committed in his lifetime, and my testimony would not be worthy of credence unless it has first been shown what my character is and how I passed my life.

Rhadamanthos

And who are you?

Kyniskos

Kyniskos, my good sir, of the philosophical persuasion.

Rhadamanthos

Come here and stand your trial first. Hermes, call for the accusers.
