Ercole • Hercule
- Queen Deianira: My father has paid with his life for the murder of your wife. I have given my people orders not to fight. If you still seek revenge, take my life. But spare my people, they are innocent.
- Hercules: Your people need not be afraid of me. And I would not avenge myself on a defenseless woman; even if you are the daughter of a man who was my greatest enemy.
- Hercules: I don't want to make war on Acalia. My only enemy is Eurysteus. I will allow him to defend himself. But if he possessed of too much cowardice, I will ask his people for the Trial of Themis.
- Achilles: I am displeased at you having kept from your friend the fact of our forthcoming marriage. Well, now you know.
- Hercules: Have you promised yourself to this man?
- Queen Deianira: I have been vowed to Achellos in marriage. It was my father who wanted it.
- Hercules: Your father committed many errors in his life. In my opinion, this one is the worst of them.
- Hercules: Oracle, you who see truth in shifting sand, in the moving tides of the sea, in the flight of birds across the sky, you to whom the stars reveal their secrets and the fates disclose their mysteries we mortals see only in our admonishing dreams. Tell me if the gods have been placated at last; if of their endless trials I shall have peace.
- The oracle: Hercules, I see the ocean in madness. I see a raft dragged along and tossed in the wake of a mighty vessel. This vessel I see is the wrath of the gods you've brought upon yourself by killing the sacred serpent of the goddess Hera. Your whole life, Hercules, will be as this raft. Swept by wind and wave, tossed by the tempest.
- Hercules: What more, oracle? What new sufferings must I endure?
