Alcmena: And what if thou art slain? what safety shall I find?

Iolaus: Thy son's surviving children will care for thee.

Alcmena: Suppose they meet with some reverse? which Heaven forefend!

Iolaus: These strangers will not give thee up, fear not.

Alcmena: They are my last and only hope, I have no other.

Iolaus: Zeus too, I feel sure, cares for thy sufferings.

Alcmena: Ah! of Zeus will I never speak ill, but himself doth know
whether he is just to me. (The Servant enters from the temple, carrying
the arms.)

Servant: Lo! here thou seest a full coat of mail; make haste to case
thyself therein; for the strife is nigh, and bitterly doth Ares loathe
loiterers; but if thou fear the weight of the armour, go now without
it, and in the ranks do on this gear; meantime will I carry it.
