Jason: Thou, too, art grieved thyself, and sharest in my sorrow.

Medea: Be well assured I am; but it relieves my pain to know thou
canst not mock at me.

Jason: O my children, how vile a mother ye have found!

Medea: My sons, your father's feeble lust has been your ruin!

Jason: 'Twas not my hand, at any rate, that slew them.

Medea: No, but thy foul treatment of me, and thy new marriage.

Jason: Didst think that marriage cause enough to murder them?

Medea: Dost think a woman counts this a trifling injury?

Jason: So she be self-restrained; but in thy eyes all is evil.
