Admetus
She should, unless it means you will be angry with me.
Heracles
Something I know of makes me so insistent with you.
Admetus
So, have your way. But what you do does not please me.
Heracles
The time will come when you will thank me. Only obey.
Admetus (to attendants)
Escort her in, if she must be taken into this house.	i no
Heracles
1 will not hand this lady over to attendants.
Admetus
You yourself lead her into the house then, if you wish.

Admetus
I will not touch her. But she is free to come inside.
