’Tis mutual in us.
PALAESTRIO
Hush! don’t you let her hear.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
Why do you stand stupefied? Why don’t you knock?
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
Because he is not within whom I want.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
How do you know[*]?
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
By my troth, I do know it easily; for my nose would scent him if he were within.
PYRGOPOLINICES(to PALAESTRIO.)
She is a diviner.
Because she is in love with me, Venus has made her prophesy.
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
He is somewhere or other close at hand whom I do so long to behold. I’m sure I smell him.
PYRGOPOLINICES(to PALAESTRIO.)
Troth, now, she really sees better with her nose than with her eyes.
PALAESTRIO(to PYRGOPOLINICES.)
She is blind from love.
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
Prithee, do support me.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
Why?
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
Lest I should fall.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
Why?
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
Because I cannot stand; my senses—my senses are sinking so by reason of my eyes.
MILPHIDIPPA

(aloud.) Heavens! you’ve seen the Captain.
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
I have.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
I don’t see him. Where is he?
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
Troth, you would see him if you were in tove.
MILPHIDIPPA(aloud.)
I’ faith, you don’t love him more than I do myself, with your good leave.
PALAESTRIO
(to PYRGOPOLINICES.)
No doubt all of the women, as soon as each has seen you, are in love with you.
PYRGOPOLINICES

(to PALAESTRIO.) I don’t know whether you have heard it from me or not; I’m the grandson of Venus.
ACROTELEUTIUM(aloud.)
My dear Milphidippa, prithee do approach and accost him.
PYRGOPOLINICES(to PALAESTRIO.)
How she does stand in awe of me!
PALAESTRIO(to PYRGOPOLINICES.)
She is coming towards us.
MILPHIDIPPA(advancing.)
I wish to speak with you.
PYRGOPOLINICES
And we with you.
MILPHIDIPPA
I have brought my mistress out of the house, as you requested me.
PYRGOPOLINICES
So I see.
