Yes, even the strong are overthrown by misfortunes.
Heracles
Ah! Would I could become a stone upon this spot, oblivious of trouble.
Theseus
Peace! give your hand to a friend and helper.
Heracles
No, let me not wipe off the blood upon your robe.
Theseus
Wipe it off and spare not; I will not refuse you.
Heracles
Bereft of my own sons, I find you as a son to me.
Theseus
Throw your arm about my neck; I will be your guide.
Heracles
A pair of friends indeed, but one a man of sorrows. Ah! aged father, this is the kind of man to make a friend.
Amphitryon
Blessed in her sons, the country that gave him birth!
Heracles
Theseus, turn me back again to see my children.
Theseus
What for? Do you think to find a drug in this to soothe your soul?
