Gorgias went to his work without delay. When the twin statues were only waiting to be erected in front of the Theatre of Dionysus, Dion sought him. Some impulse urged him to talk to his old friend before leaving the city with his betrothed bride.

His able and alert fore man found it difficult to follow him as he dictated order after order in his writing- tablet.
