Scene VI.
ОглавлениеEnter Geta, from the house of Sostrata.
Geta (to Sostrata, within). Mistress, I am going to see after them, that they may send for the damsel as soon as possible; but see, here’s Demea. (Accosting him.) Save you!
Dem. O, what’s your name?
Geta. Geta.
Dem. Geta, I have this day come to the conclusion that you are a man of very great worth, for I look upon him as an undoubtedly good servant who has a care for his master; as I have found to be your case, Geta; and for that reason, if any opportunity should offer, I would gladly do you a service. (Aside.) I am practicing the affable, and it succeeds very well.
Geta. You are kind, sir, to think so.
Dem. (aside.) Getting on by degrees—I’ll first make the lower classes my own.
