In bravery; for I will lay me down and die with my lord.
Iphis
What dost thou say? What is this silly riddle thou propoundest?
Evadne
To yonder pyre where lies dead Capaneus, I will leap down.
Iphis
My daughter, speak not thus before the multitude!
Evadne
The very thing I wish, that every Argive should learn it.
Iphis
Nay, I will neer consent to let thee do this deed.
Evadne
(as she is throwing herself). Tis all one; thou shalt never catch me in thy grasp.
Lo! I cast me down, no joy to thee, but to myself and to my husband blazing on the pyre with me.
