Utterly foolish and senseless children! Are you weary of your lives, or is there no wit inborn in you, that you do not see how you stand not on the brink, but in the very midstof immense danger?

In dealings of this sort delay is harmful, but the time is ripe for being done.OrestesThen how will things inside stand when I enter?
