Look at them! There are a round dozen on the eye like on cake. But where they are from so much? They are the more deafening then rattles and the bigger then dragonflies?Jupiter: These are the only butcher flies, but they are a little fatten. Some years ago they were attracted by stench of carrion of this town, and they grow fat since then. I suppose that after a while they will become like young frogs. By the way, if the flies hinder you from, you can use some weapon to get rid of them. Look at this swarm of flies, which buzzes around of you. I snap my fingers, perform gesture by my hand and speek: "Abraksas, gala, tse, tse."Orest: Buzzing of these flies is for me.(Quotation from J.-P.Sartre's drama "Flies")
