CLEANTHIS, SOSIE
SOSIE
What do you say, Cleanthis, to these cheerful looks, after his
terrible rage?
CLEANTHIS
That we should all do well to send all men to the devil; the
best of them is not worth much.
SOSIE
You say that because you are in a passion; but you are too fond
of men; upon my word, you would all look as black as thunder if the
devil were to take them all away.
CLEANTHIS
Really . . .
SOSIE
Here they come. Hush.
