Upon my faith, Phaedromus, you have given this decision corruptly.
It shall both be bad for you, and you, Captain,—may the Gods and Goddesses confound you.
THERAPONTIGONUS
And as for you, you shall be clapt in prison at once, unless the money’s returned me.
CAPPADOX
Then follow me.
THERAPONTIGONUS
Follow you where?
CAPPADOX
To my banker—to the Praetor[*]; for it’s there that I pay my money to all persons to whom I’m indebted.
THERAPONTIGONUS
I’ll be carrying you hence to prison, and not to the Praetor, if you don’t pay back the money.
CAPPADOX
I do most earnestly wish you may come to a bad end, so don’t misunderstand me[*].
THERAPONTIGONUS
Do you really so?
CAPPADOX
I’ faith, I really do so.
THERAPONTIGONUS
I don’t misunderstand these fists of mine.
(Holding them up.)
CAPPADOX
What then?
THERAPONTIGONUS
What then, do you ask? With these same fists, if you provoke me, I’ll be making you quiet immediately.
CAPPADOX
(taking the money from his girdle.)
Well then, take this back at once.
THERAPONTIGONUS
(taking the money.)
By all means.
PHAEDROMUS
Captain, you’ll dine with me; the nuptials shall take place to-day.
THERAPONTIGONUS
May this matter turn out well for me and for yourselves.
An ACTOR.
Spectators, give us your applause.[*]
