Hip. Madam! I do not understand you;

Phæ. You must! fierce, burning love is mine,

For you, Hippolytus, the son of Theseus!

Hip. And you his wife?

Phæ. Aye, boy, 'tis even so;

Nay, look not so:—I say Hippolytus,

That from the very hour I saw, I loved thee;

That from the very moment that thy voice

Rang in my ears, it entered in my heart,

That from the hour I was Theseus' wife,
