Cyclops: (bellowing in the cave) Oh! oh! my once bright eye is burnt
to cinders now.

Leader of the Chorus: Sweet indeed the triumph-song; pray sing it
to us, Cyclops.

Cyclops: (from within) Oh! oh! once more; what outrage on me and
what ruin! But never shall ye escape this rocky cave unpunished, ye
worthless creatures; for will stand in the entrance of the cleft and
fit my hands into it thus. (Staggering to the entrance)

Leader: Why dost thou cry out, Cyclops?

Cyclops: I am undone.

Leader: Thou art indeed a sorry sight.

Cyclops: Aye, and a sad one, too.
