Iphis: What hath not thy own father a right to know?

Evadne: Thou wouldst not wisely judge my purpose.

Iphis: Why dost thou deck thyself in that apparel?

Evadne: A purport strange this robe conveys, father.

Evadne: No, the reason why I thus am decked is strange, maybe.

Iphis: Dost thou in such garb appear before a funeral-pyre?

Evadne: Yea, for hither it is I come to take the meed of victory.

Iphis: "Victory!" What victory? This would I learn of thee.
