Summotis igitur arbitris, uno dumtaxat Tyriote retento, iam non flens, sed suspirans: Videsne inquit, Tyriote, locum mendacio non esse? tormenta iam hic erunt, sed ne expectaveris per deos, si quid tibi tui regis reverentiae est; num quod et scire expeto et quaerere pudet ausus est et dominus et iuvenis? Ille quaestioni corpus offerre, deos testes invocare, caste sancteque habitam esse reginam.
Accordingly, having dismissed all witnesses and retaining only Tyriotes, no longer weeping, but sighing, he said: Do you not see, Tyriotes, that there is no room for falsehood? Instruments of torture will soon be here; but do not wait for them, I beseech you by the gods, if you have any reverence for your king; he did not dare, did he, being master of events and young, to do that which I both desire to know, and am ashamed to inquire? The eunuch offered his body for torture, but called upon the gods to witness that the queen had been treated chastely and with respect.
