Phormio alone.

Well done, 'fore Heaven! I'm overjoy'd to see so much good fortune Fallen thus unexpectedly upon them: I've now an admirable opportunity To bubble the old gentlemen, and ease Phædria of all his cares about the money; So that he need not be oblig'd to friends. For this same money, though it will be given, Will yet come from them much against the grain; But I have found a way to force them to't. - Now then I must assume a grander air, And put another face upon this business. - I'll hence a while into the next by-alley, And pop upon them as they're coming forth. - As for the trip I talk'd of to the fair, I sha'n't pretend to take that journey now.
