Menippus

By the way, I surely heard a noise, as if people were shouting on the earth?

Hermes

You did; and from more than one quarter.—There are people running in a body to the Town-hall, exulting over the death of Lampichus; the women have got hold of his wife; his infant children fare no better,—the boys are giving them a handsome pelting. Then again you hear the applause that greets the orator Diophantus, as he pronounces the funeral oration of our friend Crato. Ah yes, and thats Damasiass mother, with her women, striking up a dirge. No one has a tear for you, Menippus; your remains are left in peace. Privileged person!
