wine[*], toothless with old age[*], you may soak yourself. There I’ll quite drench you with the effusion of unguents. Why many words? I’ll cause, when you’ve bathed, the bathkeeper to set up unguent-shop there. But (speaking confidentially) all these things that I have mentioned let out their services for pay.
COLLYBISCUS
Why so?
LYCUS
Because they demand ready money.
COLLYBISCUS
Why, upon my faith, you are not more ready to receive than I to give.
LYCUS
[*] Why then follow me in-doors.
COLLYBISCUS
[*] Lead me in-doors, then; you’ve got me devoted to your will.
(The ASSISTANTS come forward. LYCUS and COLLYBISCUS go apart.)
ADVOCATI
(among themselves.)
What if we call Agorastocles hither out of doors, that he himself may be his own witness, past all exception? (They go to the door of AGORASTOCLES and call out, in a loud whisper. Hallo! you that are to catch the thief, come out quickly, that you yourself may witness him giving the gold to the Procurer.
711
(Enter AGORASTOCLES, in haste, from his house.)
AGORASTOCLES
What’s the matter? What is it you want, witnesses?
ADVOCATI
Look to the right hand; your servant is paying gold to the Procurer himself.
COLLYBISCUS
(apart to LYCUS.)
Come, take this, will you: here are three hundred gold coins, counted out, which are called Philippeans. (Gives him the bay.) With these do you provide for me. I wish these to be spent with all speed.
LYCUS
By my troth, you have found a lavish steward for yourself. Come, let’s away in-doors.
COLLYBISCUS
I follow you.
LYCUS
Well, well, walk on; and then we’ll talk together about the other matters that remain.
COLLYBISCUS
As for me, I’ll tell you about the Spartan affairs.
LYCUS
Why then follow me.
COLLYBISCUS
Lead me in-doors; lead me in, you have got me made over to you.
(They go into the house of LYCUS.)
AGORASTOCLES
What do you advise me now?
ADVOCATI
To be moderate.
AGORASTOCLES
What if my feelings will not let me be?
ADVOCATI
Then be as they will let you.
AGORASTOCLES
Did you see it, when the Procurer received the money?
ADVOCATI
We saw it.
AGORASTOCLES
Did you know that he is my slave?
ADVOCATI
We knew it.
AGORASTOCLES
That it is a thing against the reiterated laws of the people?
ADVOCATI
We knew it.
AGORASTOCLES
Well then, all these things I wish you to keep in memory before the Praetor by-and-by, when occasion shall come.
ADVOCATI
We remember them.
AGORASTOCLES
What if, while the matter has so recently happened, I knock at the door?
ADVOCATI
I think you ought.
