What mean'st thou? What has shocked and startled thee?

Methought I heard thee say that Laius

Was murdered at the meeting of three roads.

So ran the story that is current still.

Where did this happen? Dost thou know the place?

Phocis the land is called; the spot is where

Branch roads from Delphi and from Daulis meet.

And how long is it since these things befell?
