Hush, hush! you will be my ruin.
Chorus
That he has spilled is rising up against him.
Amphitryon
Gently raise your dirge of woe, old friends;
or he will wake, and, bursting his bonds, destroy the city, rend his father, and dash his house to pieces.
Chorus
I cannot, cannot
Amphitryon
Hush! let me note his breathing;
come, let me put my ear close.
Chorus
Is he sleeping?
Amphitryon
Yes, he is sleeping, a deadly sleepless sleep, having slain wife and children with the arrows of his twanging bow.
Chorus
Ah! mourn
Amphitryon
Indeed I do.
