Miles Gloriosus · 1852
Act II, Scene XIV
Translated by Henry Thomas Riley (1852)
SCELEDRUS alone.
SCEL. Well, he's off; nor cares he any more for his master's business than if he were not in his service. For sure she really is now here in-doors in the house, for I myself found her just now lying down in our house. I am resolved now to employ myself in watching. (Places himself against the Captain's door.)
