IPH. But do thou, abiding here before the temple of the Goddess—
TH. Do what?
IPH. Purify the house with a torch.
TH. That it may be pure when thou comest back to it?
IPH. But when the strangers come out,
TH. What must I do?
IPH. Place your garment before your eyes.
TH. Lest I contract contagion?
IPH. But if I seem to tarry very long,
TH. What limit of this shall I have?
