Translation: Aristophanes [writes]: "they are fleeing the miltos-soaked rope." Since the Athenians were idle as regards the meetings, two attendants used to stretch out a miltos-soaked rope through the
agora and chase the mob into the assembly, as
Plato the comic poet says. And those who were dyed had to pay a fine.
