Ion: What means this adjuration?

Creusa: Who hast fix'd
High o'er my cave thy seat amid the rocks
With olive clothed.

Ion: Abstruse thy words, and dark.

Creusa: Where on the cliffs the nightingale attunes
Her songs, Apollo-

Ion: Why Apollo named?

Creusa: Led me in secret to his bed.

Ion: Speak on;
Thy words import some glorious fortune to me.

Creusa: Thee in the tenth revolving month, my son,
A secret pang to Phoebus did I bear.
