Because you trouble yourself about things that dont concern your own clothing and food.
DINARCHUS
Its yourselves have made me a gentleman at ease.
ASTAPHIUM
Why so?
DINARCHUS
Ill explain it to you. Ive lost my property; with my property youve robbed me of occupation.
If I had preserved my property, there had been something with which I might have been occupied.
ASTAPHIUM
And do you suppose that you can possibly well manage the affairs of state, or those of love, on any other terms without being a gentleman at ease?
DINARCHUS
It was she held a public employment, not I; you misinterpret me. But, against the law, in spite of my tax paid for pasturage[*], she has received other cattle beside myself.
ASTAPHIUM
Most persons who manage their property badly, do the same as you are doing; when they havent wherewith to pay the tax, they blame the farmers of the taxes.
DINARCHUS
My pasturage contract with you turns out but badly; now in its turn, I wish to have, according to my narrow circumstances, a little bit of arable land here with you.
ASTAPHIUM
Here is no arable, but the field is pasture land. If
