To whom he’d been so many years attach’d,

I should not think he were a man, or likely

To prove a constant husband to my daughter.

Myrr. No more of Pamphilus or my offense;

Since you will have it so!—Go, find him out;

Confer with him alone, and fairly ask him,

Will he, or no, take back Philumena?

If he avows his inclination to’t,

Restore her; but if he refuses it,

Allow, I’ve ta’en good counsel for my child.
