' replied the phy- sician, ' and I am not disposed to yield her up to the embraces of another. ' ' And will you not part witli her then, ' replied the king, ' to preserve the life of a son I so tenderly love ! Is this the friendship you profess for me ? ' ' Let me entreat you, my lord, ' said Erasistratus, ' to imagine yourself for one mo- ment in my place, woul...d you resign your Stratonice to his arms ?
