Aeschylus, agamemnon<br />

LEADER<br />

Hark, with wild curse she calls anew on him,<br />

Who stands far off and loathes the voice of wail.<br />

CASSANDRA chanting<br />

Apollo, Apollo!<br />

God of all ways, but only Death's to me,<br />

Once and again, O thou, Destroyer named,<br />

Thou hast destroyed me, thou, my love of old!<br />

LEADER<br />

She grows presageful of her woes to come,<br />

Slave tho' she be, instinct with prophecy.<br />

CASSANDRA chanting<br />

Apollo, Apollo!<br />

God of all ways, but only Death's to me,<br />

O thou Apollo, thou Destroyer named!<br />

What way hast led me, to what evil home?<br />

LEADER<br />

Know'st thou it not? The home of Atreus' race:<br />

Take these my words for sooth and ask no more.<br />
