Ὕλλος
οἴμοι, πάτερ, τί δ᾽ εἶπας; οἷά μ᾽ εἴργασαι.
Ἡρακλῆς
ὁποῖα δραστέ᾽ ἐστίν: εἰ δὲ μή, πατρὸς
1205ἄλλου γενοῦ του μηδ᾽ ἐμὸς κληθῇς ἔτι.
Ὕλλος
οἴμοι μάλ᾽ αὖθις, οἷά μ᾽ ἐκκαλεῖ, πάτερ,
φονέα γενέσθαι καὶ παλαμναῖον σέθεν.
Ἡρακλῆς
οὐ δῆτ᾽ ἔγωγ᾽, ἀλλ᾽ ὧν ἔχω παιώνιον
καὶ μοῦνον ἰατῆρα τῶν ἐμῶν κακῶν.
Ὕλλος
1210καὶ πῶς ὑπαίθων σῶμ᾽ ἂν ἰῴμην τὸ σόν;
Ἡρακλῆς
ἀλλ᾽ εἰ φοβεῖ πρὸς τοῦτο, τἄλλα γ᾽ ἔργασαι.
Ὕλλος
φορᾶς γέ τοι φθόνησις οὐ γενήσεται.
Ἡρακλῆς
ἦ καὶ πυρᾶς πλήρωμα τῆς εἰρημένης;
Ὕλλος
ὅσον γ᾽ ἂν αὐτὸς μὴ ποτιψαύων χεροῖν:
1215τὰ δ᾽ ἄλλα πράξω κοὐ καμεῖ τοὐμὸν μέρος.
Ἡρακλῆς
ἀλλ᾽ ἀρκέσει καὶ ταῦτα: πρόσνειμαι δέ μοι
χάριν βραχεῖαν πρὸς μακροῖς ἄλλοις διδούς.
Ὕλλος
εἰ καὶ μακρὰ κάρτ᾽ ἐστίν, ἐργασθήσεται.
Ἡρακλῆς
τὴν Εὐρυτείαν οἶσθα δῆτα παρθένον;
Ὕλλος
1220Ἰόλην ἔλεξας, ὥς γ᾽ ἐπεικάζειν ἐμέ.
