Diogenes

If I may ask, where did your Macedonians bury you?

Alexander

I have lain in Babylon a full month to-day; and Ptolemy of the Guards is pledged, as soon as he can get a moments respite from present disturbances, to take and bury me in Egypt, there to be reckoned among the Gods.

v.1.p.130
Diogenes

I have some reason to laugh, you see; still nursing vain hopes of developing into an Osiris or Anubis! Pray, your Godhead, put these expectations from you; none may reascend who has once sailed the lake and penetrated our entrance; Aeacus is watchful, and Cerberus an awkward customer.
