Ready to play them. Quick now, slave, and bring
Egyptian ointment, extract of lilies too,
And sprinkle it around; and I myself
Will bring a garland to each guest, and give it;
Let some one mix the wine.—Lo! now it's mix'd
Put in the frankincense, and say aloud,
"Now the libation is perform'd."[110]
The guests
Have deeply drunk already; and the scolium
Is sung; the cottabus, that merry sport,
