What is it you mean?
THEUROPIDES
Who is this? What is he asking for? Why is he thus rudely speaking of my son Philolaches in this way, and giving you abuse to your face? What’s owing him?
TRANIO
(to THEUROPIDES.)
I beg of you, do order the money to be thrown in the face of this dirty brute.
THEUROPIDES
I, order it?
TRANIO
Order the fellow’s face to be pelted with money.
A BANKER
(coming nearer.)
I could very well put up with a pelting with money.
THEUROPIDES
(to TRANIO.)
What money’s this?
TRANIO
Philolaches owes this person a little.
THEUROPIDES
How much?
TRANIO
About forty minae.
A BANKER
(to THEUROPIDES.)
Really, don’t think much of that;
it’s a trifle, in fact.
TRANIO
Don’t you hear him? Troth now, prithee, doesn’t he seem just suited to be a Banker—a generation that’s most roguish?
THEUROPIDES
I don’t care, just now, for that, who he is or whence he is;
this I want to be told me, this I very much wish to know—
I heard from him that there was interest owing on the money as well.
TRANIO
Forty-four minae are due to him.
Say that you’ll pay it, that he may be off.
THEUROPIDES
I, say that I’ll pay it?
TRANIO
Do say so.
THEUROPIDES
What, I?
TRANIO
You yourself. Do only say so. Do be guided by me. Do promise. Come now, I say; I beg of you.
THEUROPIDES
Answer me; what has been done with this money?
TRANIO
It’s safe.
THEUROPIDES
Pay it yourselves then, if it’s safe,
TRANIO
Your son has bought a house.
THEUROPIDES
A house?
TRANIO
A house.
THEUROPIDES
Bravo! Philolaches is taking after his father! The fellow now turns to merchandize.
A house, say you?
