Leader: Mistress mine, be persuaded to come to terms with her, as
far as readily comes within thy power.

Hermione: Why this haughty tone, this bandying of words, as if, forsooth,
thou, not I, wert the virtuous wife?

Andromache: Thy present claims at any rate give thee small title thereto.

Hermione: Woman, may my bosom never harbour such ideas as thine!

Andromache: Thou art young to speak on such a theme as this.

Hermione: As for thee, thou dost not speak thereof, but, as thou canst,
dost put it into action against me.

Andromache: Canst thou not conceal thy pangs of jealousy?

Hermione: What! doth not every woman put this first of all?
