Chrem. What account did she bring you at the time?
Sos. That she had done as I had ordered her.
Chrem. TeU me what is the woman's name, that she may be iaquired after.
Sos. Philtere.
Chrem. Sostrata follow me this way indoors.
Sos. How much beyond my hopes has this matter turned out! How dreadfully afraid I was, Chremes, that you would now be of feelings as unrelenting as formerly you were on exposing the child.
Chrem. Many a time a man cannot be such as he would be' if circumstan...ces do not admit of it. Time has now so brought it about, that I should be glad of a daughter; formerly I wished for nothing less.
