Enter Bacchis, from the house of Phidippus.

Bacch. Parmeno, you make your appearance opportunely; run with all speed[60] to Pamphilus.

Par. Why thither?

Bacch. Say that I entreat him to come.

Par. To your house?

Bacch. No; to Philumena.

Par. What’s the matter?

Bacch. Nothing that concerns you; so cease to make inquiry.

Par. Am I to say nothing else?

Bacch. Yes; that Myrrhina has recognized that ring as her daughter’s, which he formerly gave me.
