Boldly confess that by my advice and prompting it was done, who urged him to take up the money of the Banker upon interest, which we paid this person by way of deposit.
THEUROPIDES
You’ve saved the whole ship. Eighty minae[*], you say, are owing for it?
TRANIO
Not a coin more.
THEUROPIDES
He may have it to-day.
TRANIO
By all means so, that there may be no dispute arising; or else pay them over to me, I’ll then pay them over to him.
THEUROPIDES
But still, don’t let there be any taking me in, if I do give them to you.
TRANIO
Could I venture to deceive you in deed or word even in jest only?
THEUROPIDES
Could I venture not to be on my guard against you, so as not to trust anything to you?
TRANIO
Why, have I ever imposed upon you in anything, since I was your servant?
THEUROPIDES
But I’ve taken good care of that; I owe thanks to myself and my own judgment for that. If I’m only on my guard against you solely, I’m quite wise enough.
TRANIO
(aside.)
I agree with you.
THEUROPIDES
Now be off into the country; tell my son that I’ve arrived.
TRANIO
I’ll do as you wish.
THEUROPIDES
Run with all speed; bid him come to the city at once together with you.
TRANIO
Very well. (Aside.) Now I’ll betake myself this way by the back-door to my boon-companions; I’ll tell them that things are quiet here, and how I have kept him away from here.
(Exit.)

(THEUROPIDES, PHANISCUS, and another SERVANT.)
PHANISCUS
(coming forward.)
Really, I don’t hear either the sound of revellers here, as once it was, nor yet the music-girl singing, nor any one else.
(Goes towards the door.)
THEUROPIDES
What’s the matter here? What are these people seeking at my house? What do they want? What are they peeping in for?
PHANISCUS
I shall proceed to knock at the door. (Knocks.) Hallo there, unlock the door! Hallo, Tranio! are you going to open it, I say?
THEUROPIDES
(advancing.)
What story’s this, I wonder?
PHANISCUS
(aloud.)
Are you going to open it, I say? I’ve come to fetch my master Callidamates.
THEUROPIDES
Harkye, you lads! what are you doing there? Why are you breaking down that door?
PHANISCUS
Our master’s at a drinking-party here.
THEUROPIDES
Your master at a drinking-party here?
PHANISCUS
I say so.
THEUROPIDES
You’re carrying the joke too far, my lad.
PHANISCUS
We’ve come to fetch him.
THEUROPIDES
What person?
PHANISCUS
Our master. Prithee, how often must I tell you?
THEUROPIDES
There’s no one living here my lad; for I do think that you are a decent lad.
PHANISCUS
Doesn’t a young gentleman called Philolaches live in this house?
