Oh, yes! I imagine that like birds they are in the bushes held in the sweetest grips of love.
Dionysus
You have been sent as a guard against this very event.
Perhaps you will catch them, if you yourself are not caught before.
Pentheus
Bring me through the midst of the Theban land. I am the only man of them who dares to perform this deed.
Dionysus
You alone bear the burden for this city, you alone. Therefore the labors which are proper await you.
