Naught know I but this, that I am called the slave of Loxias.
Creusa
Then do i in my turn pity thee, sir stranger.
Ion
Because I know not her that bare me, or him that begat me.
Creusa
Is thy home here in the temple, or hast thou a house to dwell in?
Ion
The gods whole temple is my house, wherever sleep oertakes me.
Creusa
Was it as a child or young man that thou earnest to the temple?
Ion
Those who seem to know the truth, say I was but a babe.
Creusa
What Delphian maid, then, weaned thee?
Ion
I never knew a mothers breast. But she who brought me up
Creusa
Who was she, unhappy youth? I see thy sufferings in my own.
