what an incredulous man! He says 'tis not a sow; but we will stake, an you will, a measure of salt ground up with thyme, that in good Greek this is called a sow and nothing else.
    DICAEOPOLIS But a sow of the human kind.
    MEGARIAN Without question, by Diocles! of my own breed! Well! What think you? will you hear them squeal?
    DICAEOPOLIS Well, yes, I' faith, I will.
    MEGARIAN Cry quickly, wee sowlet; squeak up, hussy, or by Hermes! I take you back to the house.
    GIRL Wee-wee, wee...-wee!
