Λυσιστράτη

σὺ δὲ δὴ τί μαθὼν οὐκ ἀποθνῄσκεις;

†χωρίον ἐστί·† σορὸν ὠνήσει·

μελιτοῦτταν ἐγὼ καὶ δὴ μάξω.

λαβὲ ταυτὶ καὶ στεφάνωσαι.

Γυνὴ Α

καὶ ταυτασὶ δέξαι παρʼ ἐμοῦ.

Γυνὴ Β

καὶ τουτονγὶ λαβὲ τὸν στέφανον.

A bier is easy to buy,

A honey-cake I'll knead you with joy,

This garland will see you are decked.

CALONICE

I've a wreath for you too.

MYRRHINE

I also will fillet you.

LYSISTRATA

What more is lacking? Step aboard the boat.

See, Charon shouts ahoy.

You're keeping him, he wants to shove afloat.
