HERMES

Come, Justice, let’s call them to the bar.

JUSTICE

Quite right. Indeed they are approaching incrowds, as you see, with a great noise, buzzing about the hilltop like wasps.

ATHENIAN

I’ve got you, curse you!

SECOND ATHENIAN

You are a blackmailer!

THIRD ATHENIAN

At last you are going to pay the penalty!

FOURTH ATHENIAN

I will prove that you have committed horrible crimes!

FIFTH ATHENIAN

Empanel my jury first!

SIXTH ATHENIAN

Come to court with me, scoundrel!

SEVENTH ATHENIAN

Stop choking me!

JUSTICE

Do you know what we ought to do, Hermes? Let us put off the rest of. the cases until to-morrow, and to-day let us provide only for those entered by professions or pursuits or sciences against men. Pass me up the writs of that description.¹

HERMES

Intemperance v. the Academy in re Polemo: kidnapping.²

JUSTICE

Draw seven jurors.

HERMES

Stoa v. Pleasure: alienation of affections— because Pleasure coaxed away her lover, Dionysius.³

JUSTICE

Five will do.

HERMES

High-living v. Virtue, re Aristippus.⁴

JUSTICE

Let five sit in this case too.

HERMES

Banking v. Diogenes: absconding.⁵

JUSTICE

Draw only three.

HERMES

Painting v. Pyrrho: breach of contract.⁶

JUSTICE

Let nine sit on jury.

Hermes

We had better summon the parties, Justice.

Justice

True. Only look at the crowd, bustling and buzzing about the hilltop like a swarm of wasps!

First Athenian

I've got you, curse you.

Second Athenian

Pooh! a trumped-up charge.

Third Athenian

At last! you shall get your deserts this time.

Fourth Athenian

Your villany shall be unmasked.

Fifth Athenian

My jury first, Hermes.

Sixth Athenian

Come along: into court with you, rascal.

Seventh Athenian

You needn’t throttle me.

Justice

Do you know what I think we had better do, Hermes? Put off all the other cases for to-morrow, and only take to-day the charges brought by Arts, Professions, and Philosophies. Pick me out all of that kind.

Hermes

Drink v. the Academy, re Polemon, kidnapped.

Justice

Seven jurors.

Hermes
