are my honour and my affection reduced? What course can I adopt? Am
I to noise it abroad or keep it secret? Ought I, in my anger, to
keep the dishonour of my house to myself or make it public? Come!
Must one even think what to do in so gross an affront? I have no
standing, nothing to hope for; all my anxiety now shall be how to
avenge myself.

SCENE IV

SOSIE, NAUCRATES, POLIDAS, AMPHITRYON

SOS. All I have been able to do, Monsieur, with all my diligence, is
to have brought these gentlemen here.

AMPH. Ah! You are here?

SOS. Monsieur.

AMPH. Insolent, bold rascal!

SOS. What?

AMPH. I shall teach you to treat me thus.

SOS. What is it? What is the matter with you?

AMPH. What is the matter with me, villain?

SOS. Hullo, gentlemen, come here quickly.
