THE SUBJECT.

MNESILOCHUS, when absent at Ephesus, writes and requests his friend, Pistoclerus, to search for his mistress, Bacchis, who has left Athens with a military Captain. Having discovered her on her return to Athens, Pistoclerus falls in love with her twin-sister, whose name is also Bacchis, and is severely reproved by his tutor, Lydus, for so doing. Mnesilochus returns to Athens, and discovers from Lydus that his friend Pistoclerus is in love with a female of the name of Bacchis. He thereupon imagines that he has supplanted him with his own mistress, and in his anger resolves to restore to his father some money of his which he had gone to Ephesus to recover, and a part of which he had contrived, through a scheme of the servant Chrysalus, to retain, in order that he might redeem his mistress from the Captain. Having afterwards discovered the truth, he greatly repents that he has done so, as the officer threatens to carry Bacchis off instantly, if the money is not paid. On this, Chrysalus contrives another stratagem against Nicobulus, his aged master, and makes him, through fear of the Captain’s threats, pay the required sum. Having gained not only this but a still further sum of money, the young men regale themselves at the house of Bacchis. Nicobulus afterwards discovers from the Captain the trick that has been played upon him, and he and Mnesilochus repair to the house of Bacchis to demand their sons. The damsels, hereupon, apply themselves to coaxing the old men, who are at last persuaded to forgive their sons and Chrysalus and to go into the house and join the entertainment.

THE ACROSTIC ARGUMENT. [*]

MNESILOCHUS is inflamed with love for Bacchis (Bacchidis). But, first of all, he goes to Ephesus, to bring back some gold (Aurum). Bacchis sails for Crete (Cretam), and meets with (Convenit) the other Bacchis; thence she returns to Athens; upon this (Hinc), Mnesilochus sends a letter to Pistoclerus, that he may seek for her (Illam). He returns; he makes a quarrel while (Dum) he supposes that his own mistress is beloved by Pistoclerus; when they have discovered the mistake as to the twin-sisters, Mnesilochus pays the gold to that (Ei) Captain; equally are the two in love. The old men (Senes), while they are looking after their sons, join the women, and carouse.

THE PROLOGUE[*].

SILENUS(mounted on his Ass.)

’Tis a wonder if the spectators on the benches this day don’t hiss, and cough, and make a snorting noise at this ridiculous sight, furrow their brows, and, with cries with one consent[*], shout all aloud, and mutter imprecations.

Hardly in their youth can beardless actors, or mimics with their beards plucked out, find room upon the stage. Why comes forth this aged and lethargic go-between, who is borne upon the ass’s back? Listen, I pray, and give me your attention,

while I tell you the name of this quiet Comedy[*]. ’Tis proper for you to make silence for a Divinity. It befits not those to use the resources of the voice, who come here not to exclaim, but to be spectators. Give me attentive ears; but not into my hands I mean;

I wish my voice[*], as it flies, to strike these vacant ears. What do you fear? Are those blows more hurtful which open what is shut[*], or which close what is open? You’re very kind; the inhabitants of heaven do love you deservedly. There is profound silence—even the children are still—

and now, attend to a new-come messenger, on a new errand. Who I am—why I am come to you—I’ll tell you in a few words; at the same time, I’ll disclose to you the name of this Comedy. Now, behold, I shall tell you what you wish to know; do you then give me your attention.

I am a God of Nature[*], the foster-father of most mighty Bromius[*], him who, with a female army[*], gained a kingdom. Whatever about him renowned nations relate, some part, at least, has been accomplished by my advice. That which pleases me is never displeasing to him.

’Tis right if one father[*] another father does obey. Ass-borne do the Ionian multitudes[*] style me, because I am borne on an ass[*] for my conveyance. Who I am, you understand: if you understand, allow me now to tell the name of this quiet play;

at the same time, you may learn why I have come to you. Philemon[*] formerly produced a play in Greek; this, those who speak the Greek language call Evantides[*]. Plautus, who speaks the Latin, calls it Bacchides. ’Tis not to be wondered, then, if hither I have come.

Bacchus sends to you the Bacchides—the Bacchanalian Bacchanals. I am bringing them unto you. What! Have I told a lie? It don’t become a God to tell a lie; but the truth I tell—I bring not them; but the salacious ass, wearied with its journey, is bringing to you three, if I remember right.

One you behold; see now, what on my lips I bring—to wit, two Samian sisters[*], Bacchanalians, merry Courtesans, born of the same parents, at one time, at a twin-birth; not less alike than milk to milk, if you compare it,

or water to water; were you to see them you would think them halved[*]; so much would you confuse your sight, that you would not be able to distinguish which was which. What remains you long to hear. Now give attention: the story of this Play I will disclose.

What country Samos is, is known to all; for seas, lands, mountains, and islands, have your legions[*] made easy of access. There, Sostrata bore to her husband, Pyrgoteles Pyrocles[*], twin daughters at one birth;

and it pleased them, being initiated at the triennial festival[*] of Bacchus, to call after his name the damsels of which they were the parents. The parents, as often happens, gave a turn to[*] their future fortunes. A Captain carried one of them with him to Crete. The other of the twins sailed for Athens [*].

As soon as Mnesilochus, the son of Nicobulus, beheld her, he began to love her, and frequently paid her visits. Meantime, his father sent the youth to Ephesus, to bring back thence some gold, which he himself, some time before, had deposited with Archidemides,

an ancient friend of his, an aged Phœnician. When, for two years he had stayed at Ephesus, he received the sad news that Bacchis was gone from Athens, for some sailors of his acquaintance sent him word that she had set sail.

On this, he writes a letter to Pistoclerus, his only friend, the son of Philoxenus, entreating him to seek the fugitive with care and earnestness. While Pistoclerus is devoting his services to his friend, the twin-sisters, who have just returned to Athens, arouse a passion in the seeker.

The one wins Pistoclerus for herself; the other longs for the coming of Mnesilochus. What wonder if two bewitching, merry, pretty Bacchantes, should attract to themselves two unfledged Bacchanalians, and if they should ensnare their decrepit, most aged fathers, fit subjects for the undertaker[*], bowed down by the weight of their years?

But, see, here’s Pistoclerus, who is returning to the Bacchides so lately found, and in his simplicity[*] is blowing in himself the sparks of passion so lately kindled. Now I’m off—do you attend.

(Exit.)

(Enter PISTOCLERUS.[*]

PISTOCLERUS

⋯ those who are[*] of a thrifty turn of mind, modest, and without servility. ⋯ ⋯

Chains, rods, and mills; their shocking brutality becomes worse. ⋯ ⋯

She who keeps my friend and me engaged. ⋯

(Exit.)

(Enter FIRST BACCHIS.)

1st BACCHIS

I have heard[*] that Ulysses underwent toils innumerable, who, in wanderings, was twenty years away from his native land. But this young man by far outdoes Ulysses; who here in this spot is wandering within the walls of the city. ⋯

1st BACCHIS

⋯ She was of the same name with myself. ⋯

1st BACCHIS

Sweep out the house[*] with brooms, work briskly.

⋯ Will some one call

that most dirty fellow with the water-pail[*] and the water.
