Shameful, maybe, yet for thee better than honours code. Better this deed, if it shall save thy life, than that name thy pride will kill thee to retain.
Phaedra
I conjure thee, go no further! for thy words are plausible but infamous; for though as yet
love has not[*]
undermined my soul, yet, if in specious words thou dress thy foul suggestion, I shall be beguiled into the snare from which I am now escaping.
Nurse
If thou art of this mind, twere well thou neer hadst sinned; but as it is, hear me; for that is the next best course; I in my house have charms
to soothe thy love,—’twas but now I thought of them;—these shall cure thee of thy sickness on no disgraceful terms, thy mind unhurt, if thou wilt be but brave.
But from him thou lovest we must get some token, a word or fragment of his robe,
and thereby unite in one loves twofold stream.[*]
Phaedra
Is thy drug a salve or potion?
Nurse
I cannot tell; be content, my child, to profit by it and ask no questions.
Phaedra
I fear me thou wilt prove too wise for me.
