Reading edition
Aristophanes, Eccl. 718., says of prostitutes:
καὶ τάς γε δούλας οὐχὶ δεῖ κοσμουμένας τὴν τῶν ἐλευθέρων ὑφαρπάζειν Κύπριν, ἀλλὰ παρὰ τοῖς δούλοισι κοιμᾶσθαι μόνον. κατωνάκῃ τὸν χοῖρον ἀποτετιλμένας.
(And the slave-women ought not to bedizen themselves and snatch away the love that is free-women’s by rights; but should lie with slaves only, their pudenda plucked clean to please the wearer of the smock.) Frogs 515., Ξ. πῶς λέγεις; ὀρχηστρίδες; Θ. ἡβυλλιῶσαι κἄρτι παρατετιλμέναι (Xanthius. What say you? dancing-girls? Therap. Yes! young wenches, just plucked clean). Comp. Lysistrat. 88.
