Publisher's Synopsis
Scene I. Enter Simo and Sosia, followed by Servants carrying provisions. Simo (to the Servants.) Do you carry those things away indoors; begone. (Beckoning to Sosia.) Sosia, just step here; I want a few words with you. Sosia. Consider it as said; that these things are to be taken care of, I suppose. Sim. No, it's another matter. Sos. What is there that my ability can effect for you more than this? Sim. There's no need of that ability in the matter which I have in hand; but of those qualities which I have ever known as existing in you, fidelity and secrecy.
