Theseus: Many an enterprise and of a different kind have I ere this
endured.

Theban Herald: Wert thou then begotten of thy sire to cope with every
foe?

Theseus: Ay, with all wanton villains; virtue I punish not.

Theban Herald: To meddle is aye thy wont and thy city's too.

Theseus: Hence her enterprise on many a field hath won her many blessings.

Theban Herald: Come then, that the warriors of the dragon-crop may
catch thee in our city.

Theseus: What furious warrior-host could spring from dragon's seed?

Theban Herald: Thou shalt learn that to thy cost. As yet thou art
young and rash.
