PHILOCTETES
In the tomb��
There he must be。 O Scyros� �O my country��
How could I bear to see thee as I am´
I who had left thy sacred shores to aid
The hateful sons of Greece�拭�O misery��
��He goes into the cave。��
LEADER OF THE CHORUS ��speaking��
Ere now we should have taken thee to our ships��
But that advancing this way I behold
Ulysses�察�and with him Achilles' son。
��NEOPTOLEMUS enters
still carrying the bow��
he is followed closely by ULYSSES。��
ULYSSES
Why this return�拭�Wherefore this haste��
NEOPTOLEMUS
I come
To purge me of my crimes。
ULYSSES
Indeed� �What crimes��
NEOPTOLEMUS
My blind obedience to the Grecian host
And to thy counsels。
ULYSSES
Hast thou practised aught
Base or unworthy of thee��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Yes�察�by art
And vile deceit betrayed th' unhappy。
ULYSSES
Whom��
Alas� �what mean you��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Nothing。 But the son
Of Poeas´
ULYSSES
Ha� �what wouldst thou do�拭�My heart
Misgives me。
NEOPTOLEMUS
I have ta'en his arms�察�and now´
ULYSSES
Thou wouldst restore them� �Speak� �Is that thy purpose��
Almighty Jove��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Unjustly should I keep
Another's right��
ULYSSES
Now�察�by the gods�察�thou meanest
To mock me� �Dost thou not��
NEOPTOLEMUS
If to speak truth
Be mockery。
ULYSSES
And does Achilles' son
Say this to me��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Why force me to repeat
My words so often to thee��
ULYSSES
Once to hear them
Is once indeed too much。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Doubt then no more��
For I have told thee all。
ULYSSES
There are�察�remember��
There are who may prevent thee。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Who shall dare
To thwart my purpose��
ULYSSES
All the Grecian host��
And with them�察�I。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Wise as thou art�察�Ulysses��
Thou talkst most idly。
ULYSSES
Wisdom is not thine
Either in word or deed。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Know�察�to be just
Is better far than to be wise。
ULYSSES
But where��
Where is the justice�察�thus unauthorized��
To give a treasure back thou ow'st to me��
And to my counsels��
NEOPTOLEMUS
I have done a wrong��
And I will try to make atonement for it。
ULYSSES
Dost thou not fear the power of Greece��
NEOPTOLEMUS
I fear
Nor Greece nor thee�察�when I am doing right。
ULYSSES
'Tis not with Troy then we contend。 but thee´
NEOPTOLEMUS
I know not that。
ULYSSES
Seest thou this hand�拭�behold��
It grasps my sword。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Mine is alike prepared��
Nor seeks delay。
ULYSSES
But I will let thee go��
Greece shall know all thy guilt�察�and shall revenge it。
��ULYSSES departs。��
NEOPTOLEMUS
'Twas well determined�察�always be as wise
As now thou art�察�and thou mayst live in safety。
��He approaches the cave and calls。��
Ho� �son of Poeas� �Philoctetes�察�leave
Thy rocky habitation�察�and come forth。
PHILOCTETES ��from the cave��
What noise was that�拭�Who calls on Philoctetes��
��He comes out。��
Alas� �what would you�察�strangers�拭�Are you come
To heap fresh miseries on me��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Be of comfort��
And bear the tidings which I bring。
PHILOCTETES
I dare not��
Thy flattering tongue hath betrayed me。
NEOPTOLEMUS
And is there then no room for penitence��
PHILOCTETES
Such were thy words�察�when�察�seemingly sincere��
Yet meaning ill�察�thou stolst my arms away。
NEOPTOLEMUS
But now it is not so。 I only came
To know if thou art resolute to stay��
Or sail with us。
PHILOCTETES
No more of that�察�'tis vain
And useless all。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Art thou then fixed��
PHILOCTETES
I am��
It is impossible to say how firmly。
NEOPTOLEMUS
I thought I could have moved thee�察�but I've done。
PHILOCTETES
'Tis well thou hast�察�thy labour had been vain��
For never could my soul esteem the man
Who robbed me of my dearest�察�best possession��
And now would have me listen to his counsels´
Unworthy offspring of the best of men��
Perish th' Atreidae� �perish first Ulysses��
Perish thyself��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Withhold thy imprecations��
And take thy arrows back。
PHILOCTETES
A second time
Wouldst thou deceive me��
NEOPTOLEMUS
By th' almighty power
Of sacred Jove I swear。
PHILOCTETES
O joyful sound��
If thou sayst truly。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Let my actions speak。
Stretch forth thy hand�察�and take thy arms again。
��As NEOPTOLEMUS gives the bow and arrows
to PHILOCTETES�察�ULYSSES suddenly enters。��
ULYSSES
Witness ye gods� �Here�察�in the name of Greece
And the Atreidae�察�I forbid it。
PHILOCTETES
Ha��
What voice is that�拭�Ulysses'��
ULYSSES
Aye�察�'tis I´
I who perforce will carry thee to Troy
Spite of Achilles' son。
PHILOCTETES
��He aims an arrow directly at ULYSSES。��
Not if I aim
This shaft aright。
NEOPTOLEMUS ��laying hold of him��
Now�察�by the gods�察�I beg thee
Stop thy rash hand��
PHILOCTETES
Let go my arm。
NEOPTOLEMUS
I will not。
PHILOCTETES
Shall I not slay my enemy��
NEOPTOLEMUS
Oh�察�no��
'Twould cast dishonour on us both。
��ULYSSES hastily departs。��
PHILOCTETES
Thou knowst��
These Grecian chiefs are loud pretending boasters��
Brave but in tongue�察�and cowards in the field。
NEOPTOLEMUS
I know it�察�but remember�察�I restored
Thy arrows to thee�察�and thou hast no cause
For rage or for complaint against thy friend。
PHILOCTETES
I own thy goodness。 Thou hast shown thyself
Worthy thy birth�察�no son of Sisyphus��
But of Achilles�察�who on earth preserved
A fame unspotted�察�and amongst the dead
Still shines superior�察�an illustrious shade。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Joyful I thank thee for a father's praise��
And for my own�察�but listen to my words��
And mark me well。 Misfortunes�察�which the gods
Inflict on mortals�察�they perforce must bear��
But when�察�oppressed by voluntary woes��
They make themselves unhappy�察�they deserve not
Our pity or our pardon。 Such art thou。
Thy savage soul�察�impatient of advice��
Rejects the wholesome counsel of thy friend��
And treats him like a foe�察�but I will speak��
Jove be my witness� �Therefore hear my words��
And grave them in thy heart。 The dire disease
Thou long hast suffered is from angry heaven��
Which thus afflicts thee for thy rash approach
To the fell serpent�察�which on Chrysa's shore
Watched o'er the sacred treasures。 Know beside��
That whilst the sun in yonder east shall rise��
Or in the west decline�察�distempered still
Thou ever shalt remain�察�unless to Troy
Thy willing mind transport thee。 There the sons
Of Aesculapius shall restore thee´ there
By my assistance shalt thou conquer Troy。
I know it well�察�for that prophetic sage��
The Trojan captive Helenus�察�foretold
It should be so。 ;Proud Troy ��he added then��
This very year must fall�察�if not�察�my life
Shall answer for the falsehood。; Therefore yield。
Thus to be deemed the first of Grecians�察�thus
By Poeas' favourite sons to be restored��
And thus marked out the conqueror of Troy��
Is sure distinguished happiness。
PHILOCTETES
O life��
Detested�察�why wilt thou still keep me here��
Why not dismiss me to the tomb� �Alas��
What can I do�拭�How can I disbelieve
My generous friend�拭�I must consent�察�and yet
Can I do this�察�and look upon the sun��
Can I behold my friends´ will they forgive��
Will they associate with me after this��
And you�察�ye heavenly orbs that roll around me��
How will ye bear to see me linked with those
Who have destroyed me�察�e'en the sons of Atreus��
E'en with Ulysses�察�source of all my woes��
My sufferings past I could forget�察�but oh��
I dread the woes to come�察�for well I know
When once the mind's corrupted it brings forth
Unnumbered crimes�察�and ills to ills succeed。
It moves my wonder much that thou�察�my friend��
Shouldst thus advise me�察�whom it ill becomes
To think of Troy。 I rather had believed
Thou wouldst have sent me far�察�far off from those
Who have defrauded thee of thy just right��
And gave thy arms away。 Are these the men
Whom thou wouldst serve�拭�whom thou wouldst thus compel me
To save and to defend�拭�It must not be。
Remember�察�O my son� �the solemn oath
Thou gav'st to bear me to my native soil。
Do this�察�my friend�察�remain thyself at Scyros��
And leave these wretches to be wretched still。
Thus shalt thou merit double thanks�察�from me
And from thy father�察�nor by succour given
To vile betrayers prove thyself as vile。
NEOPTOLEMUS
Thou sayst most truly。 Yet confide in heaven��
Trust to thy friend�察�and leave this hated place。
PHILOCTETES
Leave it� �For whom�拭�For Troy and the Atreidae��
These wounds forbid it。
NEOPTOLEMUS
They shall all be healed��
Where I will carry thee。
PHILOCTETES
An idle tale
Thou tellst me。 surely�察�dost thou not��
NEOPTOLEMUS
I speak
What best may serve us both。
PHILOCTETES
But�察�speaking thus��
Dost thou no
