Irad.‍Thou wilt not to our tents then?40

Japh. No, Irad; I will to the cavern,[143] whose

Mouth they say opens from the internal world,

To let the inner spirits of the earth

Forth when they walk its surface.

Irad.‍Wherefore so?

What wouldst thou there?

Japh.‍Soothe further my sad spirit

With gloom as sad: it is a hopeless spot,

And I am hopeless.
