"Nothing can be more insincere than the silly prejudices of mankind, andnothing sillier than the morality of bigotry, " CHAPTER THE ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THIRD.
I called Giton when I had finished my meditation: "Tell me, littlebrother, " I demanded, "tell me, on your honor: Did Ascyltos stay awakeuntil he had exacted his will of you, the night he stole you away fromme? Or was he content to spend the night like a chaste widow?" Wipinghis eyes the lad, in carefully chosen words took oath that As...cyltos hadused no force against him. (The truth of the matter is, that I was sodistraught with my own misfortunes that I knew not what I was saying. "Why recall past memories which can only cause pain, " said I to myself. I then directed all my energies towards the recovery of my lost manhood. To achieve this I was ready even to devote myself to the gods;accordingly, I went out to invoke the aid of Priapus. ) {Putting as good aface upon the matter as I could} I knelt upon the threshold of his shrineand invoked the God in the following verses: "Of Bacchus and the nymphs, companion boon, Whom fair Dione set o'er forests wide As God: whom Lesbos and green Thasos own For deity, whom Lydians, far and wide Adore through all the seasons of the year; Whose temple in his own Hypaepa placed, Thou Dryad's joy and Bacchus', hear my prayer!
