Mephistopheles

Of what use is the sieve?

THE HE-MONKEY (taking it dozen)

The sieve would show, If thou wert a thief or no? (He runs to the SHE-MONKEY, and makes her look through it.) Look through the sieve! Dost know him the thief, And dar'st thou not call him so?

MEPHISTOPHELES (approaching the fire)

And then this pot?
