SCENE XVII.

Hypsipyle
alone.
O let me haste, and from my lover's mind
Remove an error fatal to my fame.
No—first a father's danger claims my care,
Let him be safe and then—but ah! meantime
Jason forsakes me!—Yet Hypsipyle
Shall first preserve the rights of filial duty,
And those preserv'd, the rest be left to Heaven!
I feel thy power, unpitying love!
Thy hopes and fears too strongly move
A heart with every pain distress'd:
Yet ah! forbear—this fatal hour
Must love and duty rend no more
With struggling pangs a daughter's breast;

[Exit.
