Of course.
PARMENO
Then this is another reason for us to rejoice, that the Captain will be beaten out of doors.
CHAEREA
Wherever my brother is, do you take care that he hears this as soon as possible.
PARMENO
I’ll go look for him at home.
(Goes into the house of LACHES.)
THRASO
(apart to GNATHO.)
Do you at all doubt, Gnatho, but that I am now ruined everlastingly?
GNATHO
(to THRASO.)
Without doubt, I do think so.
CHAEREA
(to himself.)
What am I to make mention of first, or commend in especial? Him who gave me the advice to do so, or myself, who ventured
to undertake it? Or ought I to extol fortune, who has been my guide, and has so opportunely crowded into a single day events so numerous, so important; or my father’s kindness and indulgence Oh Jupiter, I entreat you, do preserve these blessings unto us!
(Enter PHAEDRIA from the house of LACHES.)
PHAEDRIA
(to himself.)
Ye Gods, by our trust in you, what incredible things has Parmeno just related to me! But where is my brother?
CHAEREA
(stepping forward.)
Here he is.
PHAEDRIA
I’m overjoyed.
CHAEREA
I quite believe you. There is no one, brother, more worthy to be loved than this Thais of yours: so much is she a benefactress to all our family.
PHAEDRIA
Whew! are you commending her too to me?
THRASO
(apart.)
I’m undone; the less the hope I have, the more I am in love. Prithee, Gnatho, my hope is in you.
GNATHO
(apart.)
What do you wish me to do?
THRASO
(apart.)
Bring this about, by entreaties or with money, that I may at least share Thais’s favors in some degree.
GNATHO
(apart.)
It’s a hard task.
THRASO
(apart.)
If you set your mind on any thing, I know you well. If you manage this, ask me for any present you like as your reward; you shall have what you ask.
GNATHO
(apart.)
Is it so?
THRASO
(apart.)
It shall be so.
GNATHO
(apart.)
If I manage this, I ask that your house, whether you are present or absent, may be open to me; that, without invitation, there may always be a place for me.
THRASO
(apart.)
I pledge my honor that it shall be so.
GNATHO
(apart.)
I’ll set about it then.
PHAEDRIA
Who is it I hear so close at hand? (Turning round.) O Thraso—
THRASO
(coming forward.)
Save you both—
PHAEDRIA
Perhaps you are not aware what has taken place here.
THRASO
I am quite aware.
PHAEDRIA
Why, then, do I see you in this neighborhood?
THRASO
Depending on your kindness.
PHAEDRIA
Do you know what sort of dependence you have? Captain, I give you notice, if ever I catch you in this street again, even if you should say to me, I was looking for another person, I was on my road this way, you are undone.
