But, in good sooth, there are some matters on account of which I still am angry with you.
LYSITELES
What have I done?
CHARMIDES
Because you have allowed my son to become dissolute.
LYSITELES
Had that been done by my consent, there would have been cause for you to blame me. ⋯ But allow me to obtain of you this one thing which I entreat?
CHARMIDES
What is it?
LYSITELES
You shall know. If he has done anything imprudently, that you will dismiss it all from your mind. Why do you shake your head?
CHARMIDES
My heart is tortured, and I fear—
LYSITELES
What is it now?
CHARMIDES
Because he is such as I would that he was not,—by that am I tortured. I fear that if I refuse you what you ask of me, you may suppose that I am indifferent towards you. I won’t make difficulties, however; I will do as you wish.
LYSITELES
You are a worthy man. I am going to call him out. (He goes to the door of the house of CHARMIDES).
CHARMIDES
’Tis a shocking thing if one is not allowed to punish bad deserts just as they merit.
LYSITELES
(knocking at the door.)
Open the door, open quickly, and call Lesbonicus out of doors, if he is at home.
The occasion is very sudden, therefore I wish him to come to me with all haste.
LESBONICUS(Enter LESBONICUS from the house.)
What person has been calling me out of doors with so loud a knocking?
LYSITELES
’Tis your well.wisher and friend
LESBONICUS
Is all quite right?—tell me.
LYSITELES
All’s well. I am glad to say that your father has returned from abroad.
LESBONICUS
Who says so?
LYSITELES
I.
LESBONICUS
Have you seen him?
LYSITELES
Aye, and you yourself may see him too.
(He points to CHARMIDES.)
LESBONICUS
O my father, my father, blessings on you.
CHARMIDES
Many blessings on you, my son.
LESBONICUS
If, father, any trouble[*]—
CHARMIDES
Have no fear, nothing has happened. My affairs prosperously managed, I have returned safe. If you are only wishful to be steady, that daughter of Callicles has been promised you.
LESBONICUS
I will marry both her, father, and any one else besides that you shall bid me.
CHARMIDES
Although I have been angry with you,
one misery[*], in fact, is more than enough for one man.
CALLICLES
Nay, rather, ’twere too little for him; for if he were to marry a hundred wives for his sins, it were too little.
LESBONICUS
But henceforth, in future, I will be steady.
