Strep. Not, as far as I know. Will you not then pack off
as fast as possible from my door?

Pas. I will depart; and be assured of this, that I will
make deposit against you, or may I live no longer!

Strep. Then you will lose it besides, in addition to
your twelve minae. And yet I do not wish you to suffer
this, because you named the kardopos floolishly.

[Exeunt Pasias and Witness, and enter Amynias]

Amynias. Ah me! Ah me!

Strep. Ha! Whoever is this, who is lamenting? Surely it
was not one of Carcinus' deities that spoke.

Amyn. But why do you wish to know this, who I am?-A
miserable man.

Strep. Then follow your own path.

Amyn. O harsh fortune! O Fates, breaking the wheels of
my horses! O Pallas, how you have destroyed me!

Strep. What evil, pray, has Tlepolemus ever done you?

Amyn. Do not jeer me, my friend; but order your son to
pay me the money which he received; especially as I have
been unfortunate.
