[Zeus enters in the form of Amphitryon.

Zeus

Your task is ended. Go, astrologers,
Taking your admonition to such ears
As are in need of it. Go silently.

[The Astrologers go out.

Zeus

Still you pursue their empty sorceries?

Alcmena

Will you now weary me again? You drive
My friends away like dogs. I follow them.

Zeus

A sullen greeting to the traveller.
