Sem. I ’ve saved his army!
Khos. (Relieved) Ah!
No more than that?
Sem. Enough!
Khos. No! ’T will not wipe
Revenge from out his heart,—and you have saved
But that your father threw away.
Sem. Peace, sir!
Khos. There ’s but one way for me—escape!
Sem. No more!
Nay—not another word!
Khos. I must escape—
Sem. Not one!
Khos. That word unsaid slays Artavan,
Spoken it saves him! Once in Ninus’ power
I have no hope of life, and with me dies
Your brother.
