Leader: What urgent need has been neglected here?

Messenger: Teucer forbade that Ajax should go forth
Outside his hut, till he himself should come.

Leader: Well, he is gone. To wisest purpose now
His mind is turned, to appease heaven's wrath.

Messenger: These words of thine are filled with utter folly,

If there was truth in Calchas' prophecy.

Leader: What prophecy? And what know you of this thing?
