Helen: I too have shared with Priam's race their misfortunes.

Theoclymenus: Did this fellow leave thy husband unburied, or consign
him to the grave?

Helen: Unburied; woe is me for my sad lot!

Theoclymenus: Wherefore hast thou shorn the tresses of thy golden
hair?

Helen: His memory lingers fondly in this heart, whate'er his fate.

Theoclymenus: Are thy tears in genuine sorrow for this calamity?

Helen: An easy task no doubt to escape thy sister's detection!

Theoclymenus: No, surely; impossible. Wilt thou still make this tomb
thy abode?
