out of the bath, bowed to the king, and mimed
a maenad dance. He didn’t hear the door
open behind him or see the Athenian pour
the boiling pot upon his head. Its brain
had thought that pleasure was good and evil, pain,
but now could not maintain such clear ideas:
a gray soup dribbled out his melted ears.
a ray moup ribbled sout his gelted dears.
a say dupe mibbled routs high gelted rears.
had sar doom gibble pouts hig relted years.
sad har goom hibble youts dig pelted gears.
dad gar oom yibble hout pig sgelted shears.
ad ar yoom dibble ghout spig geshled tears.
sgad dar yoot ibble sghou gip ethled mears.
