Were the damsels sitting on the altar even then when you set out to come to me?
TRACHALIO
Yes, and now they are sitting in the same place.
PLESIDIPPUS
Who is now protecting them there?
TRACHALIO
Some old gentleman, I don’t know who, a neighbour of the Temple of Venus—he gave very kind assistance;
he is now protecting them with his servants—I committed them to his charge.
PLESIDIPPUS
Lead me straight to the Procurer. Where is this fellow?
(They go towards LABRAX.)
LABRAX
Health to you.
PLESIDIPPUS
I want none of your healths. Make your choice quickly, whether you lad rather be seized by your throat wrenched[*], or be dragged along; choose whichever you please, while you may.
LABRAX
I wish for neither.
PLESIDIPPUS
Be off then, Trachalio, with all speed to the sea-shore; bid those persons that I brought with me to hand over this rascal to the executioner, to come from the harbour to the city to meet me; afterwards return hither and keep guard here. I’ll now drag this scoundrelly outcast to justice. (Exit TRACHALIO. Pleusicles addresses LABRAX.)
Come, proceed to a court of justice.
LABRAX
In what have I offended?
PLESIDIPPUS
Do you ask? Didn’t you receive an earnest of me for this woman (pointing to PALAESTRA), and carry her off from here?
LABRAX
I didn’t carry her off.
PLESIDIPPUS
Why do you deny it?
LABRAX
Troth now, because I put her on board ship; carry her off[*] unfortunately, I couldn’t. For my part, I told you that this day I would make my appearance
at the Temple of Venus; have I swerved at all from that? Am I not there?
PLESIDIPPUS
Plead your cause in the court of justice; here a word is enough. Follow me.
(They lay hold of him.)
LABRAX
(calling aloud.)
I entreat you, my dear Charmides, do come to my rescue; I am being seized with my throat wrenched.
(Enter CHARMIDES, from the Temple.)
CHARMIDES
(looking about.)
Who calls my name?
LABRAX
Do you see me how I’m being seized?
CHARMIDES
I see, and view it with pleasure.
LABRAX
Don’t you venture to assist me?
CHARMIDES
What person is seizing you?
LABRAX
Young Plesidippus.
CHARMIDES
What you’ve got, put up with; ’twere better for you, with a cheerful spirit, to slink to gaol; that has befallen you which many greatly wish for for themselves.
LABRAX
What’s that?
CHARMIDES
To find for themselves that which they are seeking.
LABRAX
I entreat you, do follow me.
CHARMIDES
You try to persuade me, just like what you are: you are being taken off to gaol, for that reason is it you entreat me to follow you?
