Dro. No wonder; they are so encumbered; they are bringing a troop of female attendants[36] with them.
Clin. (apart.) I’m undone! Whence come these female attendants?
Clit. (apart.) Do you ask me?
Syr. We ought not to have left them; what a quantity of things they are bringing!
Clin. (apart.) Ah me!
Syr. Jewels of gold, and clothes; it’s growing late too, and they don’t know the way. It was very foolish of us to leave them. Just go back, Dromo, and meet them. Make haste—why do you delay?
Exit Dromo.
Clin. (apart.) Woe unto wretched me!—from what high hopes am I fallen!
Clit. (apart.) What’s the matter? Why, what is it that troubles you?
