- I too am amazed, looking at this, stranger.
- O mistress, daughter Electra, pray to the gods.
- For what thing, present or absent?
- To have a beloved treasure, which the god is revealing.
- See: I call on the gods. Or whatever do you mean, old man?
- Look now at this man, my child, your dearest one.
- I have been looking for a long time, to see whether you have lost your mind.
- Lost my mind, because I see your brother?
- What do you mean, old man, by this word, unhoped for?
