Enter OLD WOMEN
Old Wom. But what am I to do?
Chr. Take the pots with which we are to establish the
god, and carry them on your head in a stately manner,
for you came yourself with a party-coloured dress on.
Old Wom. But on what account I came ?
Chr, All shall be immediately done for you. For the
young man shall come to you in the evening.
Old Wom. Well, by Jove ! if indeed you promise me
that he shall come to me, I'll carry the pots. [Takes up
the pots and puts them on her head.
Chr. (to the spectators). Well, now, these pots act very
differently from the other pots. For in the other pots the

scum is on the top ; but now the pots are on the top of
this old woman.
Cho. Therefore 'tis fitting that we delay no longer,
but go back to the rear; for we must follow after these,
singing.
[Exeant omnes.
