What? [*]
STRATILAX
What I ask thee. Dost thee wish to be taken for a bondswoman, who dost carry on thee those rings?
(Pointing to her fingers.)
ASTAPHIUM
They give them to those who are worthy.
STRATILAX
These are the spoils of Laverna[*] which thee dost possess.[*]
(Lays hold of her.)
ASTAPHIUM
Don’t be touching me.
(Moving away.)
STRATILAX
I, touch thee? So help me my weeding-hoe, I’d rather i’ the country for me to be harnessed like an ox with crumpled horns, and with it spend the livelong night upon the straw, than that a hundred nights with thee, with a dinner apiece, were given me for nothing!
But what business, woman, hast thee at our house? Why dost thee come running this way as often as we come to town?
ASTAPHIUM
I want to meet with your women.
STRATILAX
What women art thee talking to me about, when there’s not even a single woman-fly within the house?
ASTAPHIUM
What, does no woman live here?
