I thought that he was the slave, you the free man. So did you say yourselves, and in this way did you change names between you. TYNDARUS I confess that all was done so, as you say, and that by a stratagem he has got away from you, through my aid and cleverness; and prithee, now, do you blame me for that, i’ faith? HEGIO Why, it has been done with your extreme torture for the consequence. TYNDARUS So I don’t die by reason of my misdeeds, I care but little. If I do die here, then he returns not, as he said he would; but when I’m dead, this act will be remembered to my honor, that I caused my captive master to return from slavery and the foe, a free man, to his father in his native land; and that I preferred rather to expose my own life to peril, than that he should be undone.
