POLY. Is it this thou wishest me to inform thy son of?
HEC. Yes, certainly; through thee at least, for thou art a pious man.
POLY. What necessity then is there for the presence of these children?
HEC. 'Tis better in case of thy death, that these should know.
POLY. Well hast thou thus said, and 'tis the wiser plan.
HEC. Thou knowest then where the temple of Minerva in Troy is—
POLY. Is the gold there! but what is the mark?
HEC. A black rock rising above the earth.
POLY. Hast any thing further to tell me of what is there?
HEC. No, but I wish thee to take care of some treasures, with which I came out of the city.
