Twelve of the best, with Phemius the bard,
Medon, and many followers: ’gainst all these
We are but two.
Ul.I fear them not, my son.
Tel. Seek other aid, I pray, ere ’gainst so many
We venture.
Ul.What, son, sayst thou, if Athena
And father Zeus aid us? will they, thou thinkest,
Suffice, or must we cast about to find
Some other champion?
