Creusa: And in my turn, stranger, I pity thee.

Ion: As knowing not my mother, or my lineage.

Creusa: Hast thou thy dwelling here, or in some house?

Ion: The temple is my house, ev'n when I sleep.

Creusa: A child brought hither, or in riper years?

Ion: An infant, as they say, who seem to know.

Creusa: What Delphian dame sustain'd thee at her breast?

Ion: I never knew a breast. She nourish'd me.

Creusa: Who, hapless youth? Diseased, I find disease.
