The Old Man's Case

I am not in court for any assault,
Or poisoning, or any such things.
I am here about my three she-goats;
I can prove my neighbour stole them.
Now I know these walls mostly ring
With rhetoric about the Punic Wars,
Perjuries and plots. Still I hope
You will soon get to my three she-goats.
