JASON.
Iolchus’ King is here, in very truth.
Where is the son of Tyro?
MEN.
Who art thou?
JASON.
Know me for Jason and great Aeson’s heir.
MEN.
We learn good news, most enviable sir;
That Aeson hath such grand inheritance.
JASON.
You have grown fat beneath an evil rule.
Your period is at hand. Go, one of you,
And drag the impious wretch before my sight!
MEN.
Aeson? Thy father?
JASON.
Play not with my wrath!
My mood is something dangerous.
MEN.
Dangerous sir,
1 go indeed, to bring some danger more
Hither.
JASON.
Poltroonery dislikes the wise.
Fair maidens, I salute you pleasantly.
