— All too sore thou weepest there.
Medea.
I was their mother ! When I heard thy prayer Of long life for them, there swept over me A horror, wondering how these things shall be.
But for the matter of my need that thou Should speak with me, part I have said, and now Will finish. — Seeing it is the king's behest To cast me out from Corinth . . . aye, and best, Far best, for me — I know it — not to stay Longer to trouble thee and those who sway The realm, being held to all their house a foe. . . .
...Behold, I spread my sails, and meekly go 54 EURIPIDES To exile. But our children. . . . Could this land Be still tHeir home awhile : could thine own hand But guide their boyhood. . . . Seek the king, and pray His pity, that he bid thy children stay !
Jason.
He is hard to move. Yet surely 'twere well done.
Medea.
Bid h e r — for thy sake, for a daughter's boon. . . .
Jason.
Well thought ! Her I can fashion to my mind.
Medea.
Surely. She is a woman like her kind. . . .
Yet I will aid thee in thy labour ; I Will send her gifts, the fairest gifts that lie In the hands of men, things of the days of old, Fine robings and a carcanet of gold, By the boys' hands.— Go, quick, some handmaiden, And fetch the raiment.
