What? A slave summoned as a witness?
Take you care.
CURCULIO
Well, that you may know it, I’m free.
THERAPONTIGONUS
Then come before the judge.[*]
There’s for you: take that.
(Gives him a blow.)
CURCULIO
O townsmen, townsmen, help.
THERAPONTIGONUS
Why do you bawl so?
PHAEDROMUS
What right have you to strike him?
THERAPONTIGONUS
Because I choose.
PHAEDROMUS
(to CURCULIO.)
Step this way you (pushes him towards the CAPTAIN); there, I’ll give him up to you. Hold your noise.
CURCULIO
Phaedromus, prithee do save me.
PHAEDROMUS
As I would myself and my own good Genius. Captain, prithee, do tell me whence you got that ring,
which this Parasite purloined from you.
PLANESIUM
(kneeling before the CAPTAIN.)
By your knees, I do entreat you to give us that information.
THERAPONTIGONUS
What matters that to you? You might as well ask after this sabre and this scarf, how each came into my possession.
CURCULIO
What airs the swaggerer does give himself!
THERAPONTIGONUS
Send that fellow away (pointing to CURCULIO); then I’ll tell you all.
CURCULIO
It’s nonsense what he says.
