26 Medusa: (hissing) So you come to harm me. More courageous men than you have fallen to me. (louder) Look at me, you coward!
27 Perseus: Ah, but that I could look at you, but your looks are deadly to me and any other mortal. You bring death wherever you appear, so it is time for you to meet your end.
28 Medusa: And how will you escape? You will not! My sisters will
attack you!
29 Perseus: Perhaps, but I wear winged slippers that will carry me to the
god Zephyr. He will carry me on his soft winds back to my home.
