IN CLASSICAL GREEK DRAMA 59 of a different actor for the parts of Xanthias and Aeschylus. Both characters are very important. Though Xanthias speaks but i6o verses, yet this by no means represents the significance of his part. He is continually present upon the scene up to 813, and when silent adds to the fun by his by-play. The part is that of a slave full of fun and tricks who is constantly turning the tables on his stupid master, Dionysus. The part of Aeschylus is quite different. The actor ...must be capable of rendering effectively the high tragic style and must also possess singing ability, since the part contains important lyrical elements. The actor of Euripides also has an undesirable mixture of unsuitable roles, such as Janitor, Heracles, Female Servant, etc. Peace. '— Servant B 1-49; Hermes 180-233; Tumult 255-84; Hermes 362- 726; Heracles 1052-1115. The same actor must also play Crestmaker, Sword- maker, Flutemaker, and Breastplatemaker. Wasps. — Xa. Nthias 1-137; Philocleon 144-97, 3i7-io°8, 1 122-1264, 1326- 1448, 1482-15 15.
