Potius quàm in patriâ honestè pauper vivere.
Ejus morte ad me lege redierunt bona.
[line 5] Sed quos percuncter, video. Salvete.
M.
Obsecro,
Quem video? Estné hic sobrinus Chrysidis?
Is est.
Cr.
O Mysis, salve.
M.
Salvus sis, Crito.
Cr.
Itan' Chrysis? Hem.
M.
Nos quidem pol miseras perdidit.
Cr.
Quî vos? quo pacto? satin' rectè?
M.
Nósne?
[line 10] Sic ut quimus, aiunt, quando ut volumus, non licet?
Cr.
Quid Glycerium? jam hîc suos parentes repperit?
M.
Utinam.
Cr.
An nondum etiam? haud auspicatò huc me appuli:
Nam pol si id scissem, nunquam huc tetulissem pedem.
Semper enim dicta est esse haec, atque habita est soror.
[line 15] Quae illius fuêre possidet. Nunc me hospitem lites sequi, quàm hîc mihi sit
Facile atque utile, aliorum exempla commonent.
Simul arbitror jam aliquem esse amicum & defensorem ei;
Nam ferè grandiuscula jam profecta est illinc, clamitent me
Sycophantem haereditatem persequi, mendicum: tum ipsam despo∣liare
[line 20] Non licet.
M.
Optume hospes, pol, Crito, antiquum tenes.
Cr.
Duc me ad eam, & quando huc veni, ut videam.
M.
Maxumè.
D.
Sequar hos, nolo ut me tempore hoc videat senex.
