Where will you dine then?
DINARCHUS
Wherever you request me; here.
PHRONESIUM
You’ll give me pleasure by doing so.
(They take their places at a collation spread before the house.)
DINARCHUS
I’ troth, myself still more. You’ll give me your company to-day, I suppose, my Phronesium?
PHRONESIUM
If it could possibly be done, I would.
DINARCHUS
Give me my shoes[*] then—make haste, remove the table.
PHRONESIUM
Are you in your senses, pray?
DINARCHUS
By heavens, I cannot drink now; so sick at heart am I.
PHRONESIUM
Stay; something shall be done. Don’t go.
DINARCHUS
Ah, you’ve refreshed me with cold water! My senses have now returned. Take off my shoes[*]; give me something to drink.
PHRONESIUM
By my faith, you are just the same that you used to be. But tell me, have you sped successfully?
DINARCHUS
I’ troth, successfully enough, indeed, hither to you, inasmuch as I enjoy the opportunity of seeing you.
PHRONESIUM
Embrace me then.
DINARCHUS
With pleasure. (He embraces her.) Oh, this is honey sweeter than sweet honey. In this, Jove, my fortune does exceed thine own!
PHRONESIUM
Won’t you give me a kiss?
DINARCHUS
Aye, ten even.
(Kisses her.)
PHRONESIUM
You are not niggardly in that. You promise more than I ask of you.
(Turns away her head.)
DINARCHUS
I only wish that from the first I had been as sparing of my property, as you are now thrifty of your kisses.
PHRONESIUM
If I could possibly cause you any saving, i’ troth, I could wish it done.
DINARCHUS
Have you bathed then?
PHRONESIUM
I’ troth, indeed I have then, to my own satisfaction and that of my eyes. Do I seem to be loathsome to you?
DINARCHUS
I’ faith, not to myself indeed;
but I remember that there was once a time when between ourselves we were loathsome[*], the one to the other. But what doing of yours is this I’ve heard upon my arrival? What new matter have you been scheming here in my absence?
PHRONESIUM
Why, what is it?
DINARCHUS
In the first place, that you’ve been blessed with children,
and that you’ve safely got over it, I’m delighted.
