If Pericles reveals this truth he will be killed but if he answers incorrectly he will also be killed. Pericles asks for 40 days to ponder his answer and once the time is granted he flees the city.Contend not sir; for we are gentlemen That neither in our hearts nor outward eyes Envy the great nor do the low despise.
