Receive these people, Tisiphone-a thousand and four.

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

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

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

Why?

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.

And who are you?

Kyniskos, my good sir, of the philosophical persuasion.

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