Simia

Ne plora, nescis ut res sit, Phoenicium,

verum haud multo post faxo scibis accubans.

non ego te ad illum duco dentatum virum
1040

Macedoniensem, qui te nunc flentem facit:

cuiam esse te vis maxime, ad eum ducere:

Calidorum haud multo post faxo amplexabere.

Psevdolvs

Quid tu intus quaeso desedisti quam diu?

mihi cor retunsumst oppugnando pectore.
1045

Simo

Occasionem repperisti, verbero,

ubi perconteris me, insidiis hostilibus?

quin hinc metimur gradibus militariis?

Psevdolvs

Atque edepol, quamquam nequam homo es, recte mones.

1038 (Enter SIMMIA, from BALLIO’S house, leading PHŒNICIUM.)

SIMO

(to PHŒNICIUM.)

Don’t weep: you know not how the matter is, Phœnicium; but before long I’ll let you know it when you are resting.

I’m not leading you to that Macedonian long-teethed fellow, who now causes you to be weeping. To him will I lead you, whose you especially long to be. I’ll cause you before very long to be embracing Calidorus.
1040

PSEUDOLUS

Prithee, why did you stay so long in-doors?

For how long a time was my heart throbbing with beating against my breast.
1045

SIMO

You have found reason, you whipping-post, with a vengeance to be making enquires of me amid the ambush of the enemy. Why don’t we go home with all speed with military strides ¹.

PSEUDOLUS

Now, by my troth, although you are a worthless fellow, you advise aright. March in triumphal procession, this way, straight in the path to the festive goblet.
