Is felled in forest glades, or when some cliff

Falls down and makes a harbor in the sea.

[To Hercules.]

Dost thou yet live? Or has thy furious rage,

Which sent thy friends to death, slain thee as well?

Let him have time for rest, that heavy sleep

May break his madness' force, and so relieve

His troubled heart.
