She is now dead: she has left a daughter, a young girl. She has been left with this Bacchis as a pledge for that sum.
CHREMES
I understand you.
SYRUS
She has brought her hither along with her, her I mean who is now with your wife.[*]
CHREMES
What then?
SYRUS
She is soliciting Clinia at once to advance her this money; she says, however, that this girl is to be a security, that, at a future time, she will repay the thousand pieces of money.
CHREMES
And would she really be a security?[*]
SYRUS
Dear me, is it to be doubted?
I think so.[*]
CHREMES
What then do you intend doing?
SYRUS
What, I? I shall go to Menedemus; I’ll tell him she is a captive from Caria, rich, and of noble family; if he redeems her, there will be a considerable profit in this transaction.
CHREMES
You are in an error.
SYRUS
Why so ?
CHREMES
I’ll now answer you for Menedemus—I will not purchase her.
SYRUS
What is it you say? Do speak more agreeably to our wishes.
CHREMES
But there is no occasion.
SYRUS
No occasion?
CHREMES
Certainly not, i’ faith.
SYRUS
How so, I wonder?
CHREMES
You shall soon know.[*]
SYRUS
Stop, stop; what is the reason that there is such a great noise at our door?
(They retire out of sight.)

(Enter SOSTRATA and a NURSE in haste from the house of CHREMES, and CHREMES and SYRUS on the other side of the stage unperceived.)
SOSTRATA
(holding up a ring and examining it.)
Unless my fancy deceives me, surely this is the ring which I suspect it to be, the same with which my daughter was exposed.
CHREMES
(apart.)
Syrus, what is the meaning of these expressions ?
SOSTRATA
Nurse, how is it? Does it not seem to you the same?
NURSE
As for me, I said it was the same the very instant that you showed it me.
SOSTRATA
But have you now examined it thoroughly, my dear nurse?
NURSE
Thoroughly.
SOSTRATA
Then go in-doors at once, and if she has now done bathing, bring me word. I’ll wait here in the mean time for my husband.
SYRUS
(apart.)
She wants you, see what it is she wants;
she is in a serious mood, I don’t know why; it is not without a cause—I fear what it may be.
CHREMES
What it may be? I’ faith, she’ll now surely be announcing some important trifle, with a great parade.
