Tynd.
Fecisti edepol et recte et bene.
Philocr.
Nunc tibi pater hic est. hic fur est tuos, qui parvom hinc
te abstulit.
Tynd.
At ego hunc grandis grandem natu ob furtum ad carnificem dabo.
Philocr.
Meritus est
Tynd.
Ergo edepol merito meritam mercedem dabo. 1020
sed tu dic oro. pater meus tune es?
Hegio.
Ego sum, gnate mi.
Tynd.
Nunc demum in memoriam redeo, cum mecum recogito.]

[Tynd. What do you say?  Did you bring this gentleman’s captive son? Philocr. Yes, yes, he’s inside, I tell you. Tynd. By heaven, sir, you have acted fairly and honourably. Philocr. Now here is your father:  and here is the thief who stole you away from here when you were small. Tynd. But now that we’re both big, I’ll hand him over to the executioner for that theft. Philocr. He deserves it. Tynd. Well then, I’ll give him his deserved deserts deservedly, by gad!  But you, sir, speak I beseech you.  Are you my father? Hegio I am, my dear lad. Tynd. Now at last I remember—­when I think it over.]
