TIRESIAS.
I had not come except at thy command.
OEDIPUS.
I knew not then what folly thou would'st talk,
Else should I scarce have called thee to my house.
TIRESIAS.
Such it appears in thy conceit, am I,
A fool; yet to thy parents I seemed wise.
OEDIPUS.
My parents, hold there! Tell me who were they.
TIRESIAS.
This day shall bring thee parents and despair.
