What you’re about; lest you do him no good,

And hurt yourself: for they imagine you,

Whatever has been done, the cause of all.

Par. What shall I do then? what resolve? Confusion!

—Oh! yonder’s my old master, just return’d

To town. Shall I tell him of it, or no?

I’ll tell him, tho’ I am well convinc’d, the blame

Will light on me, and heavily: And yet

It must be done to help poor Chærea.

Par. What shall I do then, wretch? what undertake?
