Geta. I don’t know.
Ant. Alas!
Geta. But Phædria has not neglected to use his endeavors in your behalf.
Ant. He did nothing new.
Geta. Then Phormio, too, in this matter, just as in every thing else, showed himself a man of energy.
Ant. What did he do?
Geta. With his words he silenced the old man, who was very angry.
Ant. Well done, Phormio!
Geta. I, too, did all I could.
