Pentheus: You have devised this together, that ye may have your revelings
forever.

Bacchus: And indeed, know this, I agreed on it with the God.

Pentheus: Bring hither the arms! and do you cease to speak.

Bacchus: Hah! Do you wish to see them sitting on the mountains?

Pentheus: Very much, if I gave countless weight of gold for it.

Bacchus: But why? have you fallen into a great wish for this?

Pentheus: I should like to see them drunk grievously [for them].

Bacchus: Would you then gladly see what is grievous to you?

Pentheus: To be sure, sitting quietly under the pines.
