Excerpt
SOSIAS (waking XANTHIAS UP) : Why, Xanthias! what are you doing, wretched man? XANTHIAS: I am teaching myself how to rest; I have been awake and on watch the whole night. SOSIAS: So you want to earn trouble for your ribs, eh? Don't you know what sort of animal we are guarding here? XANTHIAS: Aye indeed! but I want to put my cares to sleep for a while. (He falls asleep again.) SOSIAS: Beware what you do. I too feel soft sleep spreading over my eyes, XANTHIAS: Are you crazy, like a Corybant?
