—sed habet _tristis_ quoque _turba_ cinaedos, Difficile est, vero nubere, Galla, viro. (... but the dismal throng contains cinaedi as well; ’tis a difficult matter, Galla, to marry a real man). Comp. Bk. IX. Epigr. 48.; and _Juvenal_, Satir. II. 8-13., Quis enim non vicus abundat _Tristibus_ obscoenis? castigas turpia, cum sis Inter Socraticos notissima fossa cinaedos: Hispida membra quidem et durae per brachia setae Promittunt atrocem animum? sed podice laevi Caeduntur tumidae, medico ridente, mariscae. (For what street has not its crowd of _dismal_ debauchees? you inveigh against vice, when you are the most notorious pit of abomination of all the host of Socratic cinaedi. Shaggy limbs indeed and sturdy bristles on your arms promise a rugged virtue; but your fundament is smooth, and the great bursting swellings on it are cut, the doctor grinning the while.) _Seneca_, Epist. 114., Ille et crura, hic nec alas vellit. (One man plucks bare his very legs, another not even the armpits.) [337] _Aeschines_, Orat. in Timarch. p. 179., expresses it excellently, οὕτω τοὺς _πεπορνευμένους_, κᾂν μὴ παρῶμεν τοῖς αὐτῶν ἔργοις, ἐκ τῆς ἀναιδείας καὶ τοῦ θράσους καὶ τῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων γινώσκομεν. (So with regard to debauchees, even though we are not present at their actual doings, we recognize them by their bold, shameless bearing and their general habits.) [338] This was the special adornment of the woman, and was sacred to Venus; we read in _Ausonius_, Barba Iovi, crines Veneri decor; ergo necesse est, Ut nolint demi, quo sibi uterque placet. (The beard is Jove’s pride, her locks Venus’s: they must needs then object to the removal of that wherein each takes special delight). Hence _Ambrosius_ too, Hexamer. bk. VI., writes, Haud inscitum extat adagium: nullus comatus qui non idem cinaedus. (There is a familiar proverb that says: never a long-haired man but is a cinaedus.) In _Martial_, III. 58., they are called _capillati_ (long-haired.) [339] _Diogenes Laertius_, Vita Diogenis Bk. VI. 54. [340] Clouds, 340 sqq. See also (German) Translation of Aristophanes by _Fr. A.
