That I approve my son-in-law;—In short,
You may assure him also, if you please,
That I’ve betroth’d my daughter to him.
Mene. Good!
The very thing I wanted.
Chrem. So your son
The sooner shall demand the money of you;
And so shall you, according to your wish
The sooner give.
Mene. It is my wish indeed.
