You don’t consider that it is a great way fiom here.[*] Besides, you know the ways of women,
while they are bestirring themselves, and while they are making preparations a whole year passes by.
CLINIA
O Clitipho, I’m afraid—
CLITIPHO
Take courage. Look, here comes Dromo, together with Syrus: they are close at hand.
(They stand aside.)
242
(Enter SYRUS and DROMO, conversing at a distance.)
SYRUS
Do you say so?
DROMO
’Tis as I told you,—
but in the mean time, while we’ve been carrying on our discourse, these women have been left behind.
CLITIPHO
(apart.)
Don’t you hear, Clinia? Your mistress is close at hand.
CLINIA
(apart.)
Why yes, I do hear now at last, and I see and revive, Clitipho.
DROMO
No wonder; they are so encumbered; they are bringing a troop of female attendants[*] with them.
CLINIA
(apart.)
I’m undone! Whence come these female attendants?
CLITIPHO
(apart.)
Do you ask me?
SYRUS
We ought not to have left them; what a quantity of things they are bringing!
CLINIA
(apart.)
Ah me!
SYRUS
Jewels of gold, and clothes; it’s growing late too, and they don’t know the way. It was very foolish of us to leave them. Just go back, Dromo, and meet them. Make haste—why do you delay?
(Exit DROMO).)
CLINIA
(apart.)
Woe unto wretched me!—from what high hopes am I fallen!
CLITIPHO
(apart.)
What’s the matter? Why, what is it that troubles you?
CLINIA
(apart.)
Do you ask what it is? Why, don’t you see? Attendants, jewels of gold, and clothes. her too, whom I left here with only one little servant girl. Whence do you suppose that they come?
CLITIPHO
(apart.)
Oh! now at last I understand you.
SYRUS
(to himself.)
Good Gods! what a multitude there is! Our house will hardly hold them, I’m sure.
How much they will eat! how much they will drink! what will there be more wretched than our old gentleman? (Catching sight of CLINIA and CLITIPHO.) But look, I espy the persons I was wanting.
CLINIA
(apart.)
Oh Jupiter! Why, where is fidelity gone? While I, distractedly wandering, have abandoned my country for your sake, you, in the mean time, Antiphila, have been enriching yourself, and have forsaken me in these troubles, you for whose sake I am in extreme disgrace, and have been disobedient to my father;
on whose account I am now ashamed and grieved, that he who used to lecture me about the manners of these women, advised me in vain, and was not able to wean me away from her:—which, however, I shall now do; whereas when it might have been advantageous to me to do so, I was unwilling. There is no being more wretched than I.
SYRUS
(to himself.)
He certainly has been misled by our words which we have been speaking here. (Aloud.) Clinia, you imagine your mistress quite different from what she really is.
For both her mode of life is the same, and her disposition toward you is the same as it always was; so far as we could form a judgment from the circumstances themselves.
CLINIA
How so, prithee? For nothing in the world could I rather wish for just now, than that I have suspected this without reason.
SYRUS
This, in the first place, then (that you may not be ignorant of any thing that concerns her); the old woman,
who was formerly said to be her mother, was not so.—She is dead: this I overheard by accident from her, as we came along, while she was telling the other one.
CLITIPHO
Pray, who is the other one?
SYRUS
Stay; what I have begun I wish first to relate, Clitipho; I shall come to that afterward.
