"This is the tragic tale of Philomel
:27:02
and treats of Tereus' treason
and his rape."

:27:06
See, Brother, see.
:27:08
Note how she quotes the leaves.
:27:10
Lavinia, wert thou thus surprised,
sweet girl,

:27:14
ravished and wronged
as Philomela was?

:27:16
Forced in the ruthless, vast,
and gloomy wood?

:27:21
Ay, such a place
there is where we did hunt.

:27:25
Oh, why should nature
build so foul a den

:27:28
unless the gods delight in tragedies?
:27:32
Give sign, sweet girl,
:27:34
what Roman lord it was
durst do this deed.

:27:44
My lord, look here.
Look here, Lavinia!

:27:47
This sandy plot is plain.
:27:49
Guide, if thou canst, this after me
:27:53
when I have writ my name
:27:55
without the help of
any hand at all.

:28:03
Write thou, good Niece,
and here display at last

:28:07
what God will have
discovered for revenge.

:28:10
Cursed be the heart
that forced us to this shift.

:28:57
It's Chiron and Demetrius.
