towards women. WOMAN (beginning another duet) Suppose I up and broke your jaw for you! OLD MAN I am not a bit afraid of you. WOMAN Suppose I let fly a good kick at you? OLD MAN I should see your thing then. WOMAN You would see that, for all my age, it is very well plucked. LYSISTRATA (rushing out of the Acropolis) Ho there! come quick, come quick! ONE OF THE WOMEN What is it? Why these cries? LYSISTRATA A man! a man! I see him approaching all afire with the flames of love. Oh! divine Queen of Cyprus, Paphos and Cythera, I pray you still be propitious to our enterprise. WOMAN Where is he, this unknown foe?
