Where is Philolaches?
TRANIO
You never could have met me more opportunely than you have met me.
A BANKER
How’s that?
TRANIO
(taking him aside.)
Step this way.
A BANKER
(aloud.)
Why isn’t the money repaid me?
TRANIO
I know that you have a good voice; don’t bawl out so loud.
A BANKER
(aloud.)
I’ faith, I certainly shall bawl out.
TRANIO
O do humour me now.
A BANKER
What do you want me to humour you in?
TRANIO
Prithee, be off hence home.
A BANKER
Be off?
TRANIO
Return here about mid-day.
A BANKER
Will the interest be paid then?
TRANIO
It will be paid. Be off.
A BANKER
Why should I run to and fro here, or use or waste my pains? What if I remain here until mid-day in preference?
TRANIO
Why no; be off home. On my word, I’m telling the truth. Only do be off.
A BANKER
(aloud.)
Then do you pay me my interest. Why do you trifle with me this way?
TRANIO
Bravo! faith. Really now, do be off; do attend to me.
A BANKER
(aloud.)
I’ faith, I’ll call him now by name.
TRANIO
Bravo! stoutly done! Really you are quite rich now when you bawl out.
A BANKER
(aloud.)
I’m asking for my own. In this way you’ve been disappointing me for these many days past.
If I’m troublesome, give me back the money; I’ll go away then. That expression[*] puts an end to all replies.
TRANIO
(pretending to offer it him.)
Then, take the principal[*].
A BANKER
(aloud.)
Why no, the interest; I want that first.
TRANIO
What? Have you, you fellow most foul of all fellows, come here to burst yourself? Do what lies in your power.
He’s not going to pay you; he doesn’t owe it.
A BANKER
Not owe it?
TRANIO
Not a tittle, indeed, can you get from here. Would you prefer for him to go abroad, and leave the city in exile, driven hence for your sake? Why then, in preference let him pay the[*] principal.
A BANKER
But I don’t ask for it.
