Messenger: Say you, that keep the temple, and attend
The altar, where is Thoas, Scythia's king?
Open these strong-compacted gates, and cal
Forth from the shrine the monarch of the land.

Leader of the Chorus: Wherefore? at thy command if I must speak.

Messenger: The two young men are gone, through the device
Of Agamemnon's daughter: from this land
They fly; and, in their Grecian galley placed,
The sacred image of the goddess bear.

Leader: Incredible thy tale: but whom thou seek'st,
The monarch, from the temple went in haste.

Messenger: Whither? for what is doing he should know.

Leader: We know not: but go thou, and seek for him:
Where'er thou find him, thou wilt tell him this.
