Menelaus: Can it be my mind is wandering, my sight failing?

Helen: Dost not believe thou seest in me thy wife?

Menelaus: Thy form resembles her, but the real truth robs me of this
belief.

Helen: Observe me well; what need hast thou of clearer proof?

Menelaus: Thou art like her; that will I never deny.

Helen: Who then shall teach thee, unless it be thine own eyes?

Menelaus: Herein is my dilemma; I have another wife.

Helen: To Troy I never went; that was a phantom.
