“Get him that enormous caldron on the tripod so he can bloat his stomach with every food. It is cool but soon will boil with good soup which gobbler Alkman likes sparkling hot, especially in the cold season of the solstice. The glutton Alkman abstains from fancy dishes but like the demos eats a plain massive meal.”
