How’s this? How this scoundrel, Hegio, is making sport of you now.
For he’s a slave himself, and never, except his own self, had he a slave.
TYNDARUS
Because you yourself are destitute in your own country, and haven’t whereon to live at home, you wish all to be found like to yourself; you don’t do anything surprising. ’Tis the nature of the distressed to be ill-disposed, and to envy the fortunate.
ARISTOPHONTES
Hegio, take you care, please, that you don’t persist in rashly placing confidence in this man;
for so far as I see, he is certainly now putting some device in execution, in saying that he is redeeming your son from captivity; that is by no means satisfactory to me.
TYNDARUS
I know that you don’t wish that to be done; still I shall effect it, if the Gods assist me. I shall bring him back here, and he will restore me to my father, in Elis. For that purpose have I sent Tyndarus hence to my father.
