Hecuba begs him not to embark her on the same boat with himself. |

Paris was the son of Priam, king of Troy, and his wife Hecuba. |
We did not see this latter-day Hecuba, but we were told that she was still quite comely. |
But there was such laughing! Queen Hecuba laugh'd that her eyes ran o'er. |
