 ===== Athenaeus, Deipnosophistae 156.E - F =====
-<blockquote>Wherefore I wish to impart to you some of the dinner held at the house of Cebes of Cyzicus; Eso first drink some hyssop and direct your regard toward this entertainment. It was during the festival of Dionysus at Athens that I was invited to it. There I found a half dozen Cynics reclining, and one "master of the hounds," Carneius of Megara. The dinner being slow in coming, a discussion arose concerning water — which was the sweetest? Some praised the water of Lerna, others, again, the water of Peirene; but Carneius, quoting Philoxenus, said "The water which is poured over the hands." When the table was set beside us we began dinner, and "no sooner did we exhaust one lentil soup than in flowed another after." FThen lentils again, soaked in vinegar were brought to us, and **Diitrephes** clutched a handful and said: "Zeus, do not let the person who is to blame for these beans escape your vengeance!" And another thereupon cried out: "May a baneful destiny and a baneful fate seize you."
