Enter Cœnus.

Cœn. I come to mind you of the late request,

You would not hear. Be pleased to engage this lord,

And then it may succeed.

Cleom. What wouldst thou, Cœnus?

Cœn. I brought along

Some horses of the best Thessalian breed,

High-spirited and strong, and made for war;

These I would sell the king.

Cleom. Mistaken man!
