Were any drops of blood upon the path?
Creusa
None, she says; and yet she ranged the ground to and fro.
Ion
How long is it since the babe was destroyed?
Creusa
Thy age and his would measure out the self-same span, were he alive.

Ion
Hath she given birth to no other child since then?
Creusa
The god doth wrong her, and wretched is she in having no child.
Ion
But what if Phoebus privily removed her child, and is rearing it?
Creusa
Then is he acting unfairly in keeping to himself alone a joy he ought to share.
Ion
Ah me! this misfortune sounds so like my own.
Creusa
Thee too, fair sir, thy poor mother misses, I am sure.
