ARKAS
Oft are the great consulted out of form.
IPHIGENIA
Do not insist on what I must refuse.
ARKAS
A needful and a just demand refuse not.
IPHIGENIA

Acquaint thee, priestess, with the king's reply.
There is a message I would gladly bear him;
'Twould quickly banish all perplexity
Thou didst not heed thy faithful friend's advice.
