Take care of yourself, there’s a dear. Prithee, will you go in this dishabille?
(Pointing to her dress.)
SILENIUM
It’s right that such neglect should attend upon my prospects thus disarranged.
GYMNASIUM
At least do lift up that outer garment[*].
SILENIUM
Let it be dragged, while I myself am being dragged down.
GYMNASIUM
Since so it pleases you, fare you well and prosper.
SILENIUM
If I could, I would.
(Exit.)
GYMNASIUM
Mother, do you wish anything of me, before I go indoors? Upon my faith, to me she does seem to be in love.
A PROCURESS

GYMNASIUM
Do you wish anything of me?
A PROCURESS
That you may fare well.
GYMNASIUM
Fare you well.
(GYMNASIUM goes into the house of SILENTIUM.)

A PROCURESS
(to the AUDIENCE.) It’s the same fault with myself as with a great part of us women who are following this calling; who, as soon as ever we have got our load of food, are forthwith full of talk; more than is enough do we say.
Why, myself now, inasmuch as I’m filled to my heart’s content, and because I’ve charged myself quite full of the choicest of wine, it pleases me to use my tongue more at freedom; to my misfortune I can’t keep silent on that which it were necessary to be silent upon.
But once upon a time, that girl, who has gone hence in tears, from a lane I carried off a little child exposed.
There is here a certain youth, of the highest rank;
his father, of a very high family, is living at Sicyon[*];
