Diony. Divine Athenian, if I be that man,

Be thou the master of my realm till I

Have learned what 'tis to be one. Teach me here

My first new duty.

Dion. Check debauching riot

That sluices now the palace! Cease these feasts

That fume to heaven like Hecate's brewing-vats!

Nay, sir, those scowls unwrite your waterish vow.

Aris. Our Dion means, my lord, that virtue wanes

As revels wax; and yet an hour of rest
