Phan.Imply! (Aside) Don’t be a fool,
I’m not in earnest; I have found the box!
(aloud) Explain this conduct!
Altem.Sir, this is a joke?
Phan. Well, not exactly, madam; you’ve been found
Philandering at night with Gélanor.
Being within the influence of these walls,
You’re bound to speak the truth. If you can say
Your meeting’s innocent, I’m satisfied.
Altem. As innocent as truth itself, I swear.
