STAPHYLA

What do you want?

STROBILUS

For you to take in these cooks, and this music-girl, and these provisions for the wedding. Megadorus bade me take these things to Euclio.

STAPHYLA

Are you about to make this wedding, Strobilus, in honor of Ceres¹?

STROBILUS

Why?
355

STAPHYLA

Because I don’t see any wine brought.

STROBILUS

Why, that will be brought just now, when he himself comes back from the market.

STAPHYLA

There’s no firewood here in our house.

LYCONIDES

There are the beams.

STAPHYLA

I’ faith, there are.

LYCONIDES

There is wood, then; don’t you be seeking it out of doors.

STAPHYLA

What, you unpurified fellow², although your business is with the fire,

for the sake of a dinner, or of your own hire, do you request us to set our house on fire?

Follow me.

(They follow her in-doors, and STROBILUS goes with the others into the house of MEGADORUS.)
