your being with me.

_Phil._

Omnia quae cupio commemoras.

The sum total of my desires!

_Nic._

Vidi ego nequam homines, verum te
neminem deteriorem.

(_pulling himself together_) I have seen worthless men, but
never a worse one than you.

_Phil._

Ita sum. 1180

(_cheerfully_) So I am.

_Bacch._

I hac mecum intro,
ubi tibi sit lepide victibus, vino atque unguentis.

(_to Nicobulus_) Do come along inside with me: you'll have a
lovely time--things to eat, and wine and perfumes.

_Nic._

Satis, satis iam vostrist convivi:
me nil paenitet ut sim acceptus:
quadringentis Philippis filius me et
Chrysalus circumduxerunt.
quem quidem ego ut non excruciem,
alterum tantum auri non meream.

Enough, enough of your banqueting already--it makes no
difference to me how I'm entertained! Four hundred pounds
I've been tricked out of by my son and Chrysalus. And
I wouldn't forgo making that slave bleed for it, not for
another four hundred.

_Bacch._

Quid tandem, si dimidium auri
redditur, in hac mecum intro? atque ut
eis delicta ignoscas.

Well, but supposing half of it is given back, won't you come
in with me, then? Yes, and pardon their offences?

_Phil._

Faciet.

He'll do it.

_Nic._

Minime, nolo. nil moror, sine sic.
malo illos ulcisci ambo.

(_with all his remaining resolution_) Not a bit of it.
I don't want to. None of this for me: leave me alone.
I prefer to take vengeance on that pair.

_Phil._

Etiam tu homo nihili? quod di dant boni cave culpa tua amissis
dimidium auri datur. accipias, potesque et scortum aecumbas.

(_aside to Nicobulus_) See here, you--ass! Look out you
don't lose the blessings the gods give you, and have
yourself to blame for it. Here's half the money given you:
take it, and drink and have a good time with the wench.

_Nic._

Egon ubi filius corrumpatur meus, ibi potem?

(_very feebly_) I drink in the house where my son is being
debauched?

_Phil._

Potandumst. 1190

(_clapping him on the shoulder_) Drink you must.

_Nic._

Age iam, id ut ut est,
etsi est dedecori patiar, facere inducam animum
egon, cum haec cum illo accubet, inspectem?
