'He too I think was in love--with a mess of pottage.' Thyonichus knows that Aeschines' trouble is that he is in love, but does not know what the latest developments have been (cf. l. 11), nor why Aeschines has now summoned him. There is a similar turn of expression in Herond. ii. 80:
“
ἐρᾷς σὺ μὲν ἴσως Μυρτάλης: οὐδὲν δεινόν.
ἐγὼ δὲ πυρῶν.
