SIMO: What [do you mean], “my [dear] father”? As if you needed a father for this: A home, a wife, a child — [all] found against your father’s will! [And now,] if you bring here [those] who say she’s a citizen, you will have won. (A witness has arrived to confirm that the woman from Andros [the “uxor”-to-be] is in fact a citizen as required for legal marriage.)
