Teucer: Yes: but a tempest scattered them in every direction.

Helen: In what quarter of the broad ocean?

Teucer: They were crossing the Aegean in mid channel.

Helen: And after that, doth no man know of Menelaus' arrival?

Teucer: No; none; but through Hellas is he reported to be dead.

Helen: Then am I lost. Is the daughter of Thestius alive?

Teucer: Dost speak of Leda? She is dead; aye, dead and gone.

Helen: Was it Helen's shame that caused her death?

Teucer: Aye, 'tis said she tied the noose about her noble neck.
