Alive and well, possess'd of all his senses?

And Menander, in his Woman carrying the Sacred Vessel of Minerva, or the Female Flute-player, says—

A. You will not marry if you're in your senses

When you have left this life. For I myself

Did marry; so I recommend you not to.

B. The matter is decided—the die is cast.

A. Go on then. I do wish you then well over it;

But you are taking arms, with no good reason,

Against a sea of troubles. In the waves

Of the deep Libyan or Ægean sea
