  PHILOCLEON

    Who is the wretch?

  XANTHIAS

    The younger son of Carcinus。

  PHILOCLEON

    I will crush him to nothing; in point of keeping time; I will

knock him out; for he knows nothing of rhythm。

  XANTHIAS

    Ah! ah! here comes his brother too; another tragedian; and another

son of Carcinus。

    (Another dancer; hardly larger than the first; and similarly

      costumed; enters。)

  PHILOCLEON

    Him I will devour for my dinner。

  XANTHIAS

    Oh! ye gods! I see nothing but crabs。 Here is yet another son of

Carcinus。

    (A third dancer enters; likewise resembling a crab; but smaller

      than either of the others。)

  PHILOCLEON

    What's this? A shrimp or a spider?

  XANTHIAS

    It's a crab;…a hermit…crab; the smallest of its kind; it writes

tragedies。

  PHILOCLEON

    Oh! Carcinus; how proud you should be of your brood! What a

crowd of kinglets have come swooping down here! But we shall have to

measure ourselves against them。 Have marinade prepared for seasoning

them; in case I prove the victor。

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS

    Let us stand out of the way a little; so that they may twirl at

their ease。

  CHORUS

    (It divides in two and accompanies with its song the wild

dancing of PHILOCLEON and the sons of CARCINUS in the centre of the

Orchestra。) Come; illustrious children of this inhabitant of the

brine; brothers of the shrimps; skip on the sand and the shore of

the barren sea; show us the lightning whirls and twirls of your nimble

limbs。 Glorious offspring of Phrynichus; let fly your kicks; so that

the spectators may be overjoyed at seeing your legs so high in air。

Twist; twirl; tap your bellies; kick your legs to the sky。 Here

comes your famous father; the ruler of the sea; delighted to see his

three lecherous kinglets。 Go on with your dancing; if it pleases

you; but as for us; we shall not join you。 Lead us promptly off the

stage; for never a comedy yet was seen where the Chorus finished off

with a dance。





                           THE END
