Hows that? Couldnt this old fellow provide from his own resources for the wedding of his daughter.
STROBILUS
Pshaw!
ANTHRAX
Whats the matter?
STROBILUS
Whats the matter, do you ask? A pumice stone isnt so dry as is this old fellow.
ANTHRAX
Do you really say that it is as you affirm?
STROBILUS
Do be judge yourself. Why, hes for ever crying out for aid from Gods and men, that his property has gone, and that he is ruined root and branch,
if the smoke by chance escapes out of doors through the rafters of his house. Why, when he goes to sleep, he ties a bag[*] beneath his gullet.
ANTHRAX
Why so?
STROBILUS
That when he sleeps, he may lose no breath.
