Ghost of Darius: By pestilence, or faction's furious storms?

Atossa: Not so: near Athens perish'd all our troops.

Ghost of Darius: Say, of my sons, which led the forces thither?

Atossa: The impetuous Xerxes, thinning all the land.

Ghost of Darius: By sea or land dared he this rash attempt?

Atossa: By both: a double front the war presented.

Ghost of Darius: A host so vast what march conducted o'er?

Atossa: From shore to shore he bridged the Hellespont.
