Io: And shall he quit
The throne of all the worlds, by a new spouse
Supplanted?

Prometheus: She will bear to him a child,
And he shall be in might more excellent
Than his progenitor.

Io: And he will find
No way to parry this strong stroke of fate?

Prometheus: None save my own self-when these bonds are loosed.

Io: And who shall loose them if Zeus wills not?
Of thine own seed.
How say'st thou? Shall a child
Of mine release thee?

Prometheus: Son of thine, but son
The thirteenth generation shall beget.
