For this I thank you; I do not regret the service I did you.TheseusWhile I, for kindness then received, now show my pity for you.HeraclesAh yes! I am piteous object, a murderer of my sons.TheseusI weep for you in your changed fortunes.HeraclesDid you ever find another more afflicted?TheseusYour misfortunes reach from earth to heaven.HeraclesTherefore I am resolved on death.TheseusDo you suppose the gods attend to your threats?HeraclesThe god has been remorseless to me; so I will be the same to the gods.TheseusHush! lest your presumption add to your sufferings.HeraclesMy ship is freighted full with sorrow; there is no room to stow anything further.
