HELIOS

A strange message you’ve brought, Hermes. Why, I’ve never heard the like of it! He doesn’t think I’ve been going off my course and breaking bounds, does he? He’s not annoyed with me, that he’s decided to make the night three times as long as the day?

HERMES

Not a bit of it. This won’t go on for ever; but for this once, it’s his personal wish that he should get a longer night at this time.

HELIOS

Where is he? Where were you sent from with this message?

HERMES

From Boeotia, Mr. Sun, from Amphitryon’s wife. Alcmena, mother of Heracles. He’s been keeping company with her. He’s in love with her. 5

HELIOS

Isn’t one night enough, then?

HERMES

Not at all. From this romance must come one who is mighty and fit for many labours; so they can’t do justice to him in a single night.
