Orestes: Keep careful watch, lest some one come this way.

Pylades: I watch, and turn mine eye to every part.

Orestes: And dost thou, Pylades, imagine this
The temple of the goddess, which we seek,
Our sails from Argos sweeping o'er the main?

Pylades: Orestes, such my thought, and must be thine.

Orestes: And this the altar wet with Grecian blood?

Pylades: Crimson'd with gore behold its sculptured wreaths.

Orestes: See, from the battlements what trophies hang!

Pylades: The spoils of strangers that have here been slain.
