Then arrayed how does she tell him to come?
 Nurse Arrayed how? Say it again so that I may catch your meaning better.
 Chorus With his guards or perhaps unattended?
 Nurse She tells him to come with his retinue of spearmen.
 Chorus Well, do not give this message to our loathed master, but with all haste and with a cheerful heart tell him to come himself, alone, so that he may be told without alarm. For in the mouth of a messenger a crooked message is made straight. A proverbial saying, meant for the Nurse, and not for Aegisthus: In passing through the mouth of its bearer a message may be changed as he pleases.
