Alcmena: Why then didst raise a cry, fear's harbinger?

Iolaus: I called thee to come to me in front of this temple.

Alcmena: I know not what it means; who is this?

Iolaus: A messenger who says thy grandson cometh hither.

Alcmena: All hail to thee for these thy tidings! But why is he not
here, where is he? if in this land he hath set foot. What hath happened
to keep him from coming hither with thee, to cheer my heart?

Servant: He is posting the army he brought with him, and seeing it
marshalled.

Alcmena: Then have I no concern herein.

Iolaus: Yes, thou hast; though it is my business to inquire.
