Copreus: Who is monarch of this land and state?

Leader: Demophon, son of gallant Theseus.

Copreus: Surely it were most to the purpose to discuss this matter
somewhat with him; all else has been said in vain.

Leader: Lo! here he comes in person, in hot haste, and Acamas his
brother, to hear what thou hast to say. (Demophon, Acamas, and their
retinue enter.)

Demophon: Since thou for all thy years hast outstripped younger men
in coming to the rescue to this altar of Zeus, do thou tell me what
hath chanced to bring this crowd together.

Leader: There sit the sons of Heracles as suppliants, having wreathed
the altar, as thou seest, O king, and with them is Iolaus, trusty
comrade of their sire.
