Thoas: To what is tuned thy proem? Plainly speak.

Iphigenia: Not pure the victims, king, you lately seized.

Thoas: What showd thee this? Or speak'st thou but thy thought?

Iphigenia: Back turn'd the sacred image on its base.

Thoas: Spontaneous turn'd, or by an earthquake moved?

Iphigenia: Spontaneous, and, averted, closed its eyes.

Thoas: What was the cause? The blood-stain'd stranger's guilt?

Iphigenia: That, and naught else; for horrible their deeds.

Thoas: What, have they slain some Scythian on the shore?
