Or her whom chance presented, took: the feast

An image of a taken town expressed.

“The cave resounds with female shrieks; we rise

Mad with revenge, to make a swift reprise:

And Theseus first, ‘What frenzy has possessed,

O Eurytus,’ he cried, ‘thy brutal breast,

To wrong Pirithous, and not him alone,

But, while I live, two friends conjoined in one?’ ”
