Zeus

You leave us nothing, then? We exercise no control, we are not entitled to sacrifice, we are very drills and adzes, But you may well despise me: why do I sit here listening to all this, with my thunder-bolt beneath my arm?

Cyniscus

Nay, smite, if the thunder-bolt is my destiny. I shall think none the worse of you; I shall know it is all Clothos doing; I will not even blame the bolt that wounds me. And by the waytalking of thunder-boltsthere is one thing I will ask you and Destiny to explain; you can answer for her.
