Geta (apart.) I understand you.
Exit Phormio.
[ Scene III.]
Demipho, Hegio, Cratinus, Crito, and Geta.
Dem. What care and anxiety my son does bring upon me, by entangling himself and me in this same marriage! And he doesn’t so much as come into my sight, that at least I might know what he says about this matter, or what his sentiments are. (To Geta.) Be off, go see whether he has returned home or not by this.
Geta. I will.
Goes into the house.
Dem. (to the Assistants.) You see how the case stands. What am I to do? Tell me, Hegio.
Heg. What, I? I think Cratinus ought, if it seems good to you.
Dem. Tell me, Cratinus.
