Aeschylus, agamemnon CASSANDRA chanting Home cursed of God! Bear witness unto me, Ye visioned woes within- The blood-stained hands of them that smite their kin- The strangling noose, and, spattered o'er With human blood, the reeking floor! LEADER How like a sleuth-hound questing on the track, Keen-scented unto blood and death she hies! CASSANDRA chanting Ah! can the ghostly guidance fail, Whereby my prophet-soul is onwards led? Look! for their flesh the spectre-children wail, Their sodden limbs on which their father fed! LEADER Long since we knew of thy prophetic fame,- But for those deeds we seek no prophet's tongue- CASSANDRA chanting God! 'tis another crime- Worse than the storied woe of olden time, Cureless, abhorred, that one is plotting here- 68
Aeschylus, agamemnon A shaming death, for those that should be dear Alas! and far away, in foreign land, He that should help doth stand! LEADER I knew th' old tales, the city rings withal- But now thy speech is dark, beyond my ken. CASSANDRA chanting O wretch, O purpose fell! Thou for thy wedded lord The cleansing wave hast poured- A treacherous welcome How the sequel tell? Too soon 'twill come, too soon, for now, even now, She smites him, blow on blow! LEADER Riddles bcyond my rede--I peer in vain Thro' the dim films that screen the prophecy CASSANDRA chanting God! a new sight! a net, a snare of hell, Set by her hand--herself a snare more fell A wedded wife, she slays her lord, 69
