PLUTO

Have you not drunk, Protesilaus, from the waters of Lethe?

PROTESILAUS

Deeply have I drunk, my lord, but my affliction was too strong.

PLUTO

Then be patient; in time, she will join you here; you wont have to go up there.

PROTESILAUS

I cant bear to wait, Pluto. Youve been in love yourself, before now, Pluto, and know what its like.

PLUTO

What good will it do you to return to life for a single day, if shortly afterwards you must bewail the same misfortune?

PROTESILAUS

I think Ill be able to persuade her to follow me here, so that soon youll have two of us dead instead of one.

PLUTO

All this would be wrong, and has never happened before.
