Why this haughty tone, this bandying of words, as if, forsooth, thou, not I, wert the virtuous wife?
Andromache
Thy present claims at any rate give thee small title thereto.
Hermione
Woman, may my bosom never harbour such ideas as thine!
Andromache
Thou art young to speak on so delicate a subject.
Hermione
As for thee, thou dost not speak thereof but, as thou canst, dost put it into action against me.
Andromache
Canst thou not conceal thy pangs of jealousy?
Hermione
What! doth not every woman put this first of all?
Andromache
Yes, if her experiences are happy; otherwise, there is no honour in speaking of them.
Hermione
Barbarians laws are not a standard for our city.
Andromache
Alike in Asia and in Hellas infamy attends base actions.
Hermione
Clever, clever quibbler! yet die thou must and shalt.
Andromache
Dost see the image of Thetis with her eye upon thee?
