Artemis: 'Twas Cypris, mistress of iniquity, devised this evil.

Hippolytus: Ah me! now know I the goddess who destroyed me.

Artemis: She was jealous of her slighted honour, vexed at thy chaste
life.

Hippolytus: Ah! then I see her single hand hath struck down three
of us.

Artemis: Thy sire and thee, and last thy father's wife.

Hippolytus: My sire's ill-luck as well as mine I mourn.

Artemis: He was deceived by a goddess's design.

Hippolytus: Woe is thee, my father, in this sad mischance!
