Did the earth really open its mouth and swallow thy father?
Creusa
The sea-god smote and slew him with his trident.
Ion
Is there a spot there called Macrae?
Creusa
Why ask that? what memories thou recallest!
Ion
Doth the Pythian god with his flashing fire do honour to the place?
Creusa
Honour, yes! Honour, indeed! would I had never seen the spot!
Ion
How now? dost thou abhor that which the god holds dear?
Creusa
No, no; but I and that cave are witnesses of a deed of shame.
Ion
Lady, who is the Athenian lord that calls thee wife?
Creusa
No citizen of Athens, but a stranger from another land.
