- Scyros, so pained am I by these doings.
- You are not in and of yourself wicked, but you seem to have come to me after learning the shameless lessons of wicked masters. Now leave such behavior to others, whom it suits, and sail from here—once you have given me back my weapons.
- What shall we do, friends?
- Traitor, what are you doing? Come back here and surrender that bow to me!
