Chrem. Indeed?

Thais. ’Tis true:

And now most freely I restore her to you,

Demanding nothing of you in return.

Chrem. I feel your goodness, Thais, and shall ever

Remain much bounden to you.

Thais. Aye, but now

Take heed, my Chremes, lest ere you receive

The maid from me, you lose her! for ’tis she,

Whom now the Captain comes to take by storm.
