MAGISTRATE - Are you a man or a Priapus?

HERALD - Don't be stupid! I am a herald, of course, I swear I am, and I come from Sparta about making peace.

MAGISTRATE - But look, you are hiding a lance under your clothes, surely.

HERALD - No, nothing of the sort.
MAGISTRATE - Then why do you turn away like that, and hold your cloak out from your body? Have you got swellings in the groin from your journey?

HERALD - By the twin brethren! the man's an old maniac.

MAGISTRATE - But you've got an erection! You lewd fellow!

Aristophanes - Lysistrata 410 b.c.
