Not

Within the city walls, however hot

Thy spirit.

Ha! With watchers doth he go

Begirt, and mailèd pikemen?

Even so:

He lives in fear of thee, and night nor day

Hath slumber.

That way blocked!—'Tis thine to say

What next remains.

I will; and thou give ear.

A thought has found me!

All good thoughts be near,

For thee to speak and me to understand!

But now I saw Aegisthus, close at hand

As here I journeyed.

That good word shall trace

My path for me! Thou saw'st him? In what place?
