Diogenes

Yes, yes, my esteemed son of Amphitryon,—that would be all very well if you were a body; but you see you are a

v.1.p.136
phantom, you have no body. At this rate we shall get three Heracleses.

Heracles

Three?

Diogenes

Yes; look here. One in Heaven: one in Hades, thats you, the phantom: and lastly the body, which by this time has returned to dust. That makes three, Can you think of a good father for number Three?

Heracles

Impudent quibbler! And who art thou?

Diogenes

I am Diogeness phantom, late of Sinope. But my original, I assure you, is not among th immortal Gods,’ but here among dead men; where he enjoys the best of company, and snaps my fingers at Homer and all hair-splitting.
