Carthaginian, I wish to excuse myself to you. If I have said anything in my passion against the inclination of your feelings, I beg that you will pardon it; and as you have found these daughters of yours, so may the Deities bless me, it is a pleasure to me.

HANNO

I both forgive and believe you.

ANTERLASTYIS

Procurer, do you take care either to find me a mistress, or return me the mina of gold.

LYCUS

Should you like to have my music-girl?

ANTHEMONIDES

I don’t care for a music-girl; you don’t know which is the greater, their cheeks or their bosoms.

LYCUS

I’ll find one to please you.

ANTHEMONIDES

Mind that.

LYCUS
(to AGORASTOCLES.)

To-morrow I’ll bring back your gold to your house.

AGORASTOCLES

Take care that you keep that in memory.

Captain, follow me.

ANTHEMONIDES

Yes, I’ll follow you.

(LYCUS goes into his house.)

AGORASTOCLES
(to HANNO.)

How say you, kinsman? When are you thinking of leaving here for Carthage?—

for I’m determined to go together with you.

HANNO

As soon as ever I can, that instant I shall go.

AGORASTOCLES

It’s necessary for you to stop here some days, until I’ve had an auction.

HANNO

I’ll do just as you wish.

AGORASTOCLES

Come, please, let’s be off; let’s enjoy ourselves. (To the AUDIENCE.) Grant us your applause.]
