PROMETHEUS BOUND
OKEANOS
Suffer that ill to cleave to me: 'tis gain
To be simple-seeming, being simply good.
PROMETHEUS
The folly will be written down to me.
OKEANOS
Roundly, thy word enjoins me brief return.
PROMETHEUS
I fear thy voice uplift in my complaint
May bring thee into variance.
OKEANOS
Thou would'st speak
Of him late-set on the all-sovereign throne?
PROMETHEUS
Of him. Beware him, lest his wrath be kindled. 390
