Orestes: Brothers by friendship, lady, not by birth.

Iphigenia: To thee what name was by thy father given?

Orestes: With just cause I Unhappy might be call'd.

Iphigenia: I ask not that; to fortune that ascribe.

Orestes: Dying unknown, rude scoffs I shall avoid.

Iphigenia: Wilt thou refuse? Why are thy thoughts so high?

Orestes: My body thou mayst kill, but not my name.

Iphigenia: Wilt thou not say a native of what state?

Orestes: The question naught avails, since I must die.
