A.

1. Translate into Greek prose

The peasant was going on with his complaints, when his wife stopped him, by reminding him that he might be overheard. He was so, by the king himself, who standing, hidden behind a door which opened on to the market, was amusing himself, as he was wont, with observing the common people chaffering in the square. He immediately ordered the querulous couple into his presence, and gravely enquired what they had been saying. As they answered him truly, he told them they should reflect that, if he had great treasures at his command, he had still greater calls for them; that, far from leading an easy life, he was oppressed with the whole burden of government; and concluded by admonishing them to be more cautious in future, as walls had ears.
