MENEDEMUS.

YOU have made me, my dear Clinia, the very happiest of fathers,

By this return to your senses; indeed I ran great risk

Of taking leave of my own: but since I have you back,

’Tis nothing but happiness: and gladly I now consent

To the match, which hitherto in your own interest

I have only opposed because I would not have you marry

A woman not freeborn. To be sure I cd have wished

’Twas somebody else’s daughter than Chremes’. After all

It might be worse. But are you sure you hold to it still,
