Act. I. Scen. 1.
Phaedria, Parmeno.
Ph.
QUid igitur faciam? non eam? ne nunc quidemCum accersor ultrò? an potiùs ita me comparem,Non perpeti meretricum contumelias?Exclusit, revocat, redeam? non si me obsecr••t.
Par.
[line 5] Siquidem hercle possis, nil prius, ne{que} fortius;Verùm si incipies, neque perficies gnaviter,Atque ubi pati non poteris, cùm nemo expetet,Infectâ pace, ultro ad eam venies; indicansTe amare, & ferre non posse, actum est, illicet, [line 10] Perîsti: eludet, ubi re victum! senserit.
Ph.
Proin tu, dum est tempus, etiam atque etiam cogita.
Par.
Here, quae res in se neque consilium neque modumHabet ullum, eam consilio regere non potes.In amore haec omnia insunt vitia; injuriae, [line 15] Suspitiones, inimicitiae, induciae,Bellum, pax rursum. Incera haec si postulesRatione cercâ facere, nihilo plus agas,Quàm si des operam ut cum ratione insanias.Et quod nunc tute tecum iratus cogitas, [line 20] Egóne illam? quae illum, quae me, quae non? sine modò,Mori me malim; sentiet qui vir siem.Haec verba una mehercule falsa lachrymula,Quam oculos terendo miserè vix vi expresserit,Restinguet, & te ultro accusabis, & dabis [line 25] Ei ultro supplicium.
Ph.
O indignum facinus! nunc egoEt illam scelestam esse, & me miserum sentio.Et taedet & amore ardeo, & prudens sciens,Vivus vidéns{que} pereo, nec quid agam, scio.

Par.
Quid agas? nisi ut te redimas captum quàm queas [line 30] Minimo; si nequeas paululo, at quantiqueas,Et ne te afflictes.
Ph.
Itáne suades?
Par.
Si sapis,Neque praeterquam quas ipse amor molestias habet,Addas, & illas quas habet rectè feras.Sed ecca, ipsa egreditur nostri fundi calamitas; [line 35] Nam quod nos capere oportet, haec intercipit.
