Scœn. 1.

Strepsiades.
Streps.
The fift, the fourth, the third, the second; hum.
The most abhord and dreadfull day's at hand,
The old and new; all I ow money to
Threaten to sue and vow my utter ruine;
Yet I require nothing but what is just reason:
My friend forbear me till some other time;
But they all answer me, words are no payment,
Revile me, swear they'l put their bonds in suit,
And let 'em, what care I, so my Phidippides
Have learnt the art of cheating: I shall know straight;
It is but knocking at the school, ho son.
