But it isn’t proper for me.

TOXILUS
(aside.)

For the reason, I suppose, that he made no difficulties when I purchased you.

LEMNISELENE
(aside.)

But still—

TOXILUS
(aside.)

No still. Beware, then, of a mishap, will you, and obey me. It becomes you to be heedful of my orders; for, i’ faith, had it not been for me and my protection, he would before long have made a street-walker of you. But such are some of those who have gained their freedom, unless they thwart their patron, they don’t appear to themselves free enough, or wise enough, or honest enough,

unless they oppose him, unless they abuse him, unless they are found ungrateful to him who has been kind.

LEMNISELENE
(aside.)

I’ troth, your kindnesses command me to pay obedience to your commands.
