Why has he come?
MILPHIO
Dont you hear? He declares that he is wishful to give African mice to the Aediles as a show at the games.
HANNO
Lalech lachananim liminichot[*].
AGORASTOCLES
What does he say now?
MILPHIO
He says he has brought latchets, water-channels[*], and nuts;
hes now begging that youll lend him your assistance in having them sold.
AGORASTOCLES
He is a merchant, I suppose?
HANNO
Is amar binam[*].
AGORASTOCLES
What is it he says?
HANNO
Palum erga dectha [*].
AGORASTOCLES
Milphio, what is he saying now?
MILPHIO
He says that he has got spades and forks[*] given him for sale,
for digging the garden and reaping the corn.
AGORASTOCLES
What is that to me?
MILPHIO
He wishes you to be informed of it, so that you maynt suppose that he has taken anything secretly and by stealth. He has really, I do believe, been sent here to your harvesting.
HANNO
Muphonium sucoraim[*].
MILPHIO
So there! do take care, please, how you do what hes begging of you.
AGORASTOCLES
What is he saying, or what is he begging? Explain it.
MILPHIO
For you to order him to be placed beneath a hurdle[*], and for many stones to be heaped upon it, so as to put him to death.
HANNO
Gunebel balsamen ierasan!
AGORASTOCLES
Tell me what it is that hes saying.
MILPHIO
I faith, now I really dont at all know.
HANNO
(speaking in their own language.)
But that you may know, now from this moment henceforth will I speak Latin.
(To MILPHIO.) Upon my faith, you must be a worthless and bad servant, to be laughing at a person, a foreigner and a stranger.
MILPHIO
But, i faith, at yourself a person thats both a swindler and a cheat, who have come here to take us in, you half-and-half Lybian, you double-tongue, just like a crawling reptile.
AGORASTOCLES
(to MILPHIO.)
Away hence with your abusiveness! do restrain your tongue. Youll keep it from uttering abuse, if you are prudent; I dont want you to be speaking harshly to my kinsmen. I was born at Carthage; do you remember that.
HANNO
O my fellow-countryman, greetings to you!
AGORASTOCLES
And you, troth, whoever you are;
and if you have need of anything, pray mention it, and command me for the sake of our common country.
HANNO
I return you thanks; but Ive got a place of entertainment here; Im in search of the son of Antidamas; do point me out Agorastocles, if you know him. Do you know any young man here named Agorastocles?
