Have we to learn the sickness. Wouldst thou tell
The name and sort thereof, 'twould like us well.

NURSE
Small leechcraft have I, and she tells no man.

LEADER

NURSE

LEADER (_turning and looking at_ PHAEDRA).
How she is changed and wasted! And how weak!

NURSE
'Tis the third day she hath fasted utterly.

LEADER

NURSE

LEADER

NURSE
She hides her wound, and vows it is not so.
