Perde 5
[Textpart 2]
Don’t fear; this instant shall I restore you to joyousness before you go away.
885
EUTYCHUS
A thing that you especially long to hear, the same shall you hear for you to rejoice at. Stay this instant; I’m come as a friend, full of the kindest feelings.
EUTYCHUS
I know where she is.
CHARINUS
Prithee, do you?
EUTYCHUS
She’s safe and sound.
CHARINUS
Where is she safe?
CHARINUS
I’d much rather I did.
EUTYCHUS
Can’t you possibly be calm in your feelings?
890
CHARINUS
What if my feelings are agitated?
890
EUTYCHUS
I’ll bring them for you into a safe and tranquil state; don’t you fear.
CHARINUS
Prithee do say where she is —where you’ve seen her. Why are you mute? Speak—you are torturing to death wretched me by your silence.
EUTYCHUS
She isn’t far from here.
CHARINUS
Why then don’t you point her out, if you see her?
EUTYCHUS
I’ faith, I don’t see her at this moment; but I saw her just now.
895
CHARINUS
Why, then, don’t you cause me to see her?
