Nothing at all, i’ faith; for tell me, how could I know, who was but six years old when I was stolen away from Carthage?
HANNO
(apart.)
O ye immortal Gods! very many freeborn children have been lost from Carthage after this manner.
MILPHIO
How say you?
AGORASTOCLES
What do you want?
MILPHIO
Should you like me to address this person in the Punic tongue?
AGORASTOCLES
Do you understand it?
MILPHIO
No Punic man this day is a better Punic than I.
AGORASTOCLES
Go and address him, as to what he wants, why he’s come, who he is, of what country, and whence he comes. Don’t be sparing of your questions.
MILPHIO
(addressing HANNO and his SERVANTS.)
Avo! [*] Of what country are you, or from what city?
HANNO
Hanno Muthumballe bachaëdreanech.
AGORASTOCLES
What does he say?
MILPHIO
He says that he is Hanno from Carthage, a Carthaginian, son of Muthumbal.
HANNO
Avo!
MILPHIO
He salutes us.
HANNO
Donni[*].
MILPHIO
He intends to present you with some donation out of this; what, I don’t know. Don’t you hear him promise?
AGORASTOCLES
Salute him again in Punic, in my name.
MILPHIO
(to HANNO.)
Avo donni he tells me to say to you in his name.
(Pointing to AGORASTOCLES.)
HANNO
Mehar bocca[*]!
MILPHIO
Be that for yourself rather than me!
AGORASTOCLES
What does he say?
MILPHIO
He declares that his box for his teeth is painful. Perhaps he takes us to be doctors.
AGORASTOCLES
If it is so, tell him that we are not; I don’t wish a stranger to be mistaken.
MILPHIO
(to HANNO.)
Hear you.
Rufen nuco istam[*].
AGORASTOCLES
This is my wish, that in fact everything should be explained to him just as it is. Ask him whether he has need of anything.
MILPHIO
(to HANNO.)
You who have got no girdle[*], why have you come to this city, or what is it you seek?
HANNO
Muphursa[*].
AGORASTOCLES
What is it he says?
HANNO
Moin lechianna[*].
