that you were the son of some warrior; who dreams of nothing but

wounds and bruises; of some Bulomachus or Clausimachus; go and sing

your plaguey songs to the spearmen。。。。Where is the son of Cleonymus?

Sing me something before going back to the feast。 I am at least

certain he will not sing of battles; for his father is far too careful

a man。

  SON OF CLEONYMUS

    〃A Saian is parading with the spotless shield which I regret to

say I have thrown into a thicket。〃

  TRYGAEUS

    Tell me; you little good…for…nothing; are you singing that for

your father?

  SON OF CLEONYMUS

    〃But I saved my life。〃

  TRYGAEUS

    And dishonoured your family。 But let us go in; I am very

certain; that being the son of such a father; you will never forget

this song of the buckler。 (To the CHORUS) You; who remain to the

feast; it's your duty to devour dish after dish and not to ply empty

jaws。 Come; put heart into the work and eat with your mouths full。

For; believe me; poor friends; white teeth are useless furniture if

they chew nothing。

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS (to TRYGAEUS; who is going into the house)

Never fear; thanks all the same for your good advice。 (To the

CHORUS) And all of you; who yesterday were dying of hunger; come;

stuff yourselves with this fine hare…stew; it's not every day that

we find cakes lying neglected。 Eat; eat; or I predict you will soon

regret it。

  TRYGAEUS (coming out of the house)

    Silence! Keep silence! Here is the bride about to appear! Take

nuptial torches and let all rejoice and join in our songs。 Then;

when we have danced; clinked our cups and thrown Hyperbolus through

the doorway we will carry back all our farming tools to the fields and

shall pray the gods to give wealth to the Greeks and to cause us all

to gather in an abundant barley harvest; enjoy a noble vintage; to

grant that we may choke With good figs; that our wives may prove

fruitful; that in fact we may recover all our lost blessings; and that

the sparkling fire may be restored to the hearth; (OPORA comes out

of the house; followed by torch…bearing slaves。) Come; wife; to the

fields and seek; my beauty; to brighten and enliven my nights。 Oh!

Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus!

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS (singing)

    Oh! thrice happy man; who so well deserve your good fortune! Oh!

Hymen! oh oh! Hymenaeus!

  CHORUS (singing)

    Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus!

  TRYGAEUS (singing)

    What shall we do to her?

  CHORUS (singing)

    What shall we do to her?

  TRYGAEUS (singing)

    We will gather her kisses。

  CHORUS (singing)

    We will gather her kisses。

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS (singing)

    But come; comrades; we who are in the first row; let us pick up

the bridegroom and carry him in triumph。 Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus! Oh!

Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus!

  TRYGAEUS (singing)

    You shall have a fine house; no cares and the finest of figs。

Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus! Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus!

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS (singing)

    The bridegroom's fig is great and thick; the bride's very soft and

tender。

  TRYGAEUS (singing)

    While eating and drinking deep draughts of wine; continue to

repeat: Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus! Oh! Hymen! oh! Hymenaeus; Hail;

hail; my friends。 All who come with me shall have cakes galore。
