Act. V. Scene 8.
Gnatho, Thraso.
Gn.
WHat now, with what hope, or to what intent go we hither? what do you attempt Thraso?
Thr.
What I? that I may yeeld my self to Thais, and do as she biddeth me.
Gn.
What is that?
Thr.
May I not as well serve her, as Hercules ser∣ved Omphale:
Gn.
I like the example: I wish I may see your head broken with her slipper. [line 5] But her doors creak.
Thr.
But what mischief is this?I never saw this fellow yet; why doth he skip forth so hastily?

Act. V. Scena 8.
Gnatho, Thraso.
Gn.
QUid nunc! quâ spe, aut quo consilio huc îmus? quid incoeptas Thraso?
Thr.
Egóne? ut Thaidi me dedam, & faciam quod jubeat.
Gn.
Quid est?
Thr.
Quî minus huic, quàm Hercules servivit Om∣phalae?
Gn.
Exemplum placet. Utinam tibi commitigari videam sandalio caput. [line 5] Sed fores crepuêre ab eâ.
Thr.
Quid autem hoc est mali?Hunc ego nunquā videram etiam; quidnam hic properans prosilit?
