ing to THRASO._) Thraso, whenever you please, step this
way.

THRA. Prithee, how goes it?

GNA. How? {Why}, these people didn't know you; after I had discovered
to them your qualities, and had praised you as your actions and your
virtues deserved, I prevailed upon them.

THRA. You have managed well; I give you my best thanks. Besides,
I never was any where but what all were extremely fond of me.

GNA. (_to PHAEDRIA and CHAEREA._) Didn't I tell you that he was a master
of the Attic elegance?

PHAED. He is no other than you mentioned. (_Pointing to his FATHER'S
house._) Walk this way. (_To the AUDIENCE._) Fare you well, and grant
us your applause.

[Footnote 18: _The Title_)--Colman has the following remark on
this Play: "This seems to have been the most popular of all the
Comedies of Terence. Suetonius and Donatus both inform us that it
