Sceledrus is asleep, she has sent out

Her under-keeper, so that she may pass
From our house into this.—I like it well.—
But see—Periplectomenes comes yonder,
Bringing along, as I commission'd him,
A woman of incomparable beauty.—
The gods take part with us in our affair.—
See how demure she treads! and how becoming
Is her apparell!—nothing like an harlot.—
This business prospers rarely in our hands.
