Secure from my assaults? Go cast it out
To be a banquet for the birds of prey.
Hyllus: She suffered more than even thou wouldst wish.
Self-slain, and grieving sore for thee, she died.1465
But 'tis not by a cruel wife's deceit,
Nor by my mother's guile, thou liest low.
By Nessus was this deadly plot conceived,
Who, smitten by thine arrow, lost his life.
'Twas in the centaur's gore the robe was dipped,1470
And by thy pains he doth requite his own.
