DIONYSUS
Yet cravest thou such
A sight as would much grieve thee?

PENTHEUS
Yes; I fain
Would watch, ambushed among the pines.

DIONYSUS
'Twere vain
To hide. They soon will track thee out.

PENTHEUS
Well said!
'Twere best done openly.

DIONYSUS
Wilt thou be led
By me, and try the venture?

PENTHEUS
Aye, indeed!
Lead on. Why should we tarry?

DIONYSUS
First we need
A rich and trailing robe of fine-linen
To gird thee.
