With your tongue.
CAPPADOX
With that same tongue I now gainsay it; that was given me by Nature for the purpose of speaking, not of losing my property.
THERAPONTIGONUS
He’s trifling; seize the fellow by the throat.
(Seizes him.)
CAPPADOX
I’ll at once then do as you bid me.
THERAPONTIGONUS
Since you are an honest man, answer me this that I ask you.
CAPPADOX
Ask me what you please.
THERAPONTIGONUS
Did you not promise, that if any one should show that she (pointing to PLANESIUM) was freeborn,
you would pay back all the money?
CAPPADOX
I don’t remember saying so.
THERAPONTIGONUS
What, do you deny it?
CAPPADOX
I’ faith, I really do deny it. In whose presence? In what place was it?
THERAPONTIGONUS
In my own presence, and that of Lyco the banker.
CAPPADOX
Why don’t you hold your tongue?
THERAPONTIGONUS
I shan’t hold my tongue.
CAPPADOX
I don’t care a rush for you; don’t be bullying me.
THERAPONTIGONUS
In my own presence and that of Lyco it took place.
PHAEDROMUS
(to the CAPTAIN.)
I quite believe you.
Now, therefore, Procurer, that you may know my judgment, (pointing to PLANESIUM) she is a free woman; he (pointing to the CAPTAIN) is her brother, and she is his sister; she is engaged to me; do you restore him the money; that’s my decision.
