They’ve gone into the country, I say. Be off.
ASTAPHIUM
Why are you bawling out, you lunatic?
STRATILAX
If thee doesn’t make haste to get away from this with prodigious speed, I’ll forthwith be separating even from thy brains those falsified, daintily arranged, corkscrew curls of thine, with all their grease as well.
ASTAPHIUM
For what reason, pray?
STRATILAX
Why, because thee hast even presumed to approach our door anointed up with thine unguents, and because thee hast those cheeks so nicely, painted pink.
ASTAPHIUM
I’ troth, it was by reason of your clamour that I coloured in my alarm.
STRATILAX
And is it so? Thee coloured? As though, hussy, thee really hadst left to thy skin the power of receiving any colour. Redden up thy cheeks, thee hast given all thy skin its colour with chalk[*].
Ye are scoundrelly jades.
What’s the reason, abominable hussies, that this way ⋯?
I know more than thee think’st I know.
