_PAMPHILUS._ ’TIS simply ruin, Clinia; pray come back at once. Do wait till after dinner. _CLINIA._ I couldn’t. _Pam._ The governor Will smoke it all if you go: ’twill break our party up. _Clin._ My father thinks I am killed. _Pam._ What matter so you’re not? _Clin._ He’ll be so grieved. Indeed I can’t consider your party. 1050 _Pam._ You’re most ungrateful. _Clin._ Nay indeed, good Pamphilus, I am much obliged for all your kindness; I say so again. But this I told you expressly I did not wish. _Pam._ You’ve got More than you ever hoped. Antiphila here: your father Brought nicely round: and all through my good management. And now you’ll throw me over for want of a little patience. _Clin._ To be free with you, I do not like being half drawn in, as I am, To tricking your father of fifty pounds. Besides I am here Under a false name, as his guest. Antiphila too Is passing off for somebody else, I know not who; While you and Philolaches have deceived your father and mine, 1061 In a way that I cannot be party to. _Pam._ Wait. Here comes my father. I’ll show you now what kind of a temper I risk for you. _Enter Chremes from town._ _CHREMES._ Wheu! back at last. Wheu, wheu! my word! as hot as hot! Wheu! bah! and all this worry and flurry for nothing: wheu! I am covered and choked with dust. I wish most heartily These Persians had found their grave at Chrysnotaparoys. I vow that the famous army of Darius never gave Such trouble to brave Miltiades at Marathon, As these two rascally slinkers have given to me. Wheu! Wheu! 1070 _Pam._ (_advancing_). Have you not found them, father? _Chr._ If I have found them? No. I went to the port; the ship I found there sure enough, But I could not hear of them. A single passenger, They said, had landed; and he was a Greek. I enquired besides At all the houses along the road: there was not a man, Who had even so much as seen them. _Sostrata_ (_within_). Chremes! Chremes! _Chr._ Ah! _Enter Sostrata from Chremes’ house._ _SOSTRATA._ O husband! husband! _Chr._ O wife! wife! _Sost._ She is found, she is found! _Chr._ Who’s found? _Sost._ Our daughter, our long-lost daughter is found. _Chr._ What now? _Sost._ Look! this is the necklace, this the ring. _Chr._ Why, what d’ye mean?
