Zeus

Poor, simple thing, do you think, then, that my present affairs have to do with love-making and such-like child's play?

p.17

Hera

Being Zeus, you are disturbed by nothing else, I know.

Zeus

O Hera, things divine are in extremity. As the saying is, it is touch and go with us whether we are still to be honored and to receive the gifts that are offered up on earth, or whether we are to be disregarded altogether and held utterly insignificant.

Hera

Surely the earth has not produced another race of giants? Or have the Titans broken their bonds and overpowered their guard, and taken up arms against us again?

Zeus

Take heart. Beneath the earth all things are well.

Hera

Then what could happen to frighten us? If you have no anxiety of that kind I do not see why you have favored us with this little dramatic exhibition.
