Ah me, how you deride me!
Strepsiades.
He will contain six choae.
Pasias.
By great Jupiter and the gods, you certainly shall not do this to me with impunity!
Strepsiades.
I like your gods amazingly; and Jupiter, sworn by, is ridiculous to the knowing ones.
Pasias.
You will assuredly suffer punishment, some time or other, for this. But answer and dismiss me, whether you are going to repay me my money or not.
Strepsiades.
Keep quiet now, for I will presently answer you distinctly.
Runs into the house.
Pasias.
(to his summons-witness). What do you think he will do?
Witness.
I think he will pay you.
Re-enter Strepsiades with a kneading-trough.
Strepsiades.
Where is this man who asks me for his money? Tell me what is this?
Pasias.
What is this? A κάρδοπος.
Strepsiades.
And do you then ask me for your money, being such an ignorant person? I would not pay, not even an obolus, to any one who called the καρδόπη κάρδοπος.
Pasias.
Then won’t you pay me?
Strepsiades.
Not, as far as I know. Will you not then pack off as fast as possible from my door?
Pasias.
I will depart; and be assured of this, that I will make deposit against you, or may I live no longer!
Strepsiades.
Then you will lose it besides, in addition to your twelve minae. And yet I do not wish you to suffer this, because you named the kardopos floolishly.
Exeunt Pasias and Witness, and enter Amynias.
1259
Amynias.
Ah me! Ah me!
Strepsiades.
Ha! Whoever is this, who is lamenting? Surely it was not one of Carcinus’ deities that spoke.
Amynias.
But why do you wish to know this, who I am?-A miserable man.
Strepsiades.
Then follow your own path.
Amynias.
O harsh fortune! O Fates, breaking the wheels of my horses! O Pallas, how you have destroyed me!
Strepsiades.
What evil, pray, has Tlepolemus ever done you?
Amynias.
Do not jeer me, my friend; but order your son to pay me the money which he received; especially as I have been unfortunate.
Strepsiades.
What money is this?
Amynias.
That which he borrowed.
Strepsiades.
Then you were really unlucky, as I think.
Amynias.
By the gods, I fell while driving my horses.
Strepsiades.
Why, pray, do you talk nonsense, as if you had fallen from an ass?
Amynias.
Do I talk nonsense if I wish to recover my money?
Strepsiades.
You can’t be in your senses yourself.
Amynias.
Why, pray?
