I’m coming home from the Forum.
THEUROPIDES
Has anything new been going on at the Forum to-day?
SIMO
Why yes.
THEUROPIDES
What is it, pray?
SIMO
I saw a dead man being carried to burial.
THEUROPIDES
Dear me!
that is something new!
SIMO
[*] I saw one who was dead being carried out to burial[*]
They said that he had been alive but just before.
THEUROPIDES
Woe to that head of yours for your nonsense!
SIMO
Why are you, thus idling about, enquiring after the news?
THEUROPIDES
Because I’ve just arrived from abroad.
SIMO
I’m engaged out to dine: don’t suppose I shall invite you[*].
THEUROPIDES
I’ faith, I don’t want.
SIMO
But, to-morrow, unless any person invites me first, I’ll even dine with you.
THEUROPIDES
I’ faith, and that, too, I don’t want. Unless you are engaged with something of greater importance, lend me your attention.
SIMO
By all means.
THEUROPIDES
You have received, as far as I understand, forty minae of Philolaches.
SIMO
Never a coin, so far as I know.
THEUROPIDES
What? Not from my servant Tranio?
SIMO
Much less is that the case.
THEUROPIDES
Which he gave you by way of deposit?
SIMO
What are you dreaming about?
THEUROPIDES
What, I? Why, really, ’tis yourself, who hope that, by dissembling in this manner,
you’ll be able to make void this bargain.
SIMO
Why, what do you mean?
THEUROPIDES
The business that, in my absence, my son transacted with you here.
SIMO
How did your son,
in your absence, transact any business with me? What pray, or on what day?
THEUROPIDES
I owe you eighty minae of silver.
