Thou hast dismissed them already?

Horace.

They've gone, anyhow.

Fakrash.

[Beaming.] And were they not astounded by the magnificence of thy dwelling and the liberality of their entertainment?

Horace.

Distinctly so. But I warn you—don't you press me on the subject of that entertainment. I can't trust myself to talk about it just yet.

Fakrash.

Render me no thanks.

Horace.
