Orestes: What was he doing? I see a gleam of hope after our helplessness.

Old Man: I thought he was preparing a feast for the Nymphs.

Orestes: In return for the bringing up of children or in anticipation
of a birth?

Old Man: All I know is this, he was preparing to sacrifice oxen.

Orestes: How many were with him? or was he alone with his servants?

Old Man: There was no Argive there; only a band of his own followers.

Orestes: Is it possible that any of them will recognize me, old man?

Old Man: They are only servants, and they have never even seen thee.

Orestes: Will they support me, if I prevail?
