O king, whose home is that olive-clad hill!
Theseus
Why this piteous prelude in addressing me?
Amphitryon
The gods have afflicted us with grievous suffering.
Theseus
Whose are these children, over whom you weep?
Amphitryon
My own sons children, woe is him! he was their father and butcher both, hardening his heart to the bloody deed.
Theseus
Hush! good words only!
Amphitryon
I would I could obey!
Theseus
What dreadful words!
Amphitryon
Fortune has spread her wings, and we are ruined, ruined.
Theseus
What do you mean? what has he done?
Amphitryon
Slain them in a wild fit of frenzy
