Clo. Then put up your pipes in your bag, for I'll away. Go; vanish into air, away!
Pandarus appears to be a capital musician. In the following we find him questioning a musical servant of Priam's palace about some instrumental music which is going on within, 'at the request of Paris.' The servant amuses himself by giving 'cross' answers to Pandarus' crooked questions, and in the process gets out two or three musical jokes—e.g., 'partly know,' 'music in parts,' 'wholly, sir.' Further on, Paris also plays on the term 'broken' music.

Pandarus. Know you the musicians?
Pan. Who play they to?
Serv. To the hearers, sir.
Pan. At whose pleasure, friend?
