Act. III. Scen. I.
ANTIPHO. GETA.
An.
TRulie, Antipho, you are much to be discommended with that faint heart,That you should thus go away hence, and commit your life to others to be preserved?Did you think other men would better minde your businesse then your self?For however other things were, you might surely have consulted for her, who is now at your house, [line 5] Lest she being deceived because of your aid should endure some ill;Which poor woman's hopes and riches do all depend upon you alone.
G.
Trulie, master, we blamed you here even now, in your absence, be∣cause you went away.
An.
I was looking for you.
G.
But we failed never the more for that reason.

A.
Speak, I pray you, in what state do my matters and fortunes stand? [line 10] Doth my father perceive anie thing of the matter?
G.
Nothing at all.
A.
Is there anie further hope?
G.
I know not.
A.
Alas.
G.
But that Phaedria did not cease to la∣bour for you.
A.
He hath no new thing.
G.
Besides Phormio in this, as in other matters,Shewed himself a stout man.
A.
What did he?
G.
He confutedYour father that was verie angrie with words.
A.
O brave Phormio!
G.
[line 15] And I did what I could too.
A.
O my Geta, I love you all.
G.
Thus the entrance is made, as I tell you: the matter is yet in quiet;And your father will tarrie for your uncle, until he come hither.
A.
Why will he tarrie for him?
G.
As he said, he would do according to his advice in that whichBelongeth this businesse.
A.
Geta, How greatlie am I afraid that my uncle [line 20] Will now come hither safe! For, as far as I hear, I must either liveOr die according to his sentence.
G.
Here is Phaedria for you.
A.
Where?
G.
Look where he is, he comes forth out of his own wrestling-school doors.

ANTIPHO. GETA.
An.
ENimvero, Antipho, multis modis, cum istoc animo vituperandus es,Itáne te hinc abiisse, & vitam tuam tutandam aliis dedisse?Alios tuam rem credidisti, magis quàm tete animadver∣suros?Nam utut erant alia, illi certè, quae nunc tuae domi est, consu∣leres. [line 5] Ne quid propter tuam fidem decepta pateretur mali,Cujus nunc miserae spes opésque sunt in te uno omnes sitae.
G.
Equidem, here, nos jam dudum hic te absentem incusamus, qui abieris.
A.
Teipsum quaerebam.
G.
Sed eâ causâ nihilo magis de∣fecimus.

A.
Loquere, obsecro, quonam in loco sint res & fortunae meae? [line 10] Nunquid patri subolet?
G.
Nihil etiam.
A.
Ecquid sp••i porrò est?
G.
Nescio.
A.
Ah.
G.
Nisi Phaedria haud cessavit pro te eniti.
A.
Nihil secit novi.
G.
Tum Phormio itidem hac re, ut in aliis,Strenuum hominem praebuit.
A.
Quid is fecit?
G.
ConfutavitVerbis admodum iratum patrem.
A.
Eheu Phormio!
G.
[line 15] Ego, quod potui, feci porró.
A.
Mi Geta, omnes vos amo.
G.
Sic habent principia sese, ut dico: adhuc tranquilla res est;Mansurúsque patruum est pater, dum huc adveniat.
A.
Quid eum?
G.
Ut aiebant, de ejus consilio sese velle facere quod ad hancRem attinet.
A.
Quantus metus est mihi, venire huc nunc [line 20] Salvum patruum, Geta! Nam per ejus unā, ut audio, aut vi••āAut moria••, sententiam.
G.
Phaedria tibi adest.
A.

Eccum, ab suâ palestrâ exit foras.
