Aeschylus, agamemnon Hearing no shadow'd hint of th' o'er-true tale, But its full hatefulness: yet, for the rest, Far from the track I roam, and know no more. CASSANDRA 'Tis Agamemnon's doom thou shalt behold. LEADER Peace hapless woman, to thy boding words! CASSANDRA Far from my speech stands he who sains and saves. LEADER Ay-- were such a doom at hand-- which God forbid! CASSANDRA Thou prayest idly--these move swift to slay. LEADER What man prepares a deed of such despite? CASSANDRA Fool! thus to read amiss mine oracles. 78
Aeschylus, agamemnon LEADER Deviser and device are dark to me. CASSANDRA Dark! all too well I speak the Grecian tongue. LEADER Ay--but in thine, as in Apollo's strains, Familiar is the tongue, but dark the thought. CASSANDRA Ah, ah the fire! it waxes, nears me now-- Woe, woe for me, Apollo of the dawn! Lo, how the woman-thing, the lioness Couched with the wolf--her noble mate afar-- Will slay me, slave forlorn! Yea, like some witch, She drugs the cup of wrath, that slays her lord, With double death--his recompense for me! Ay, 'tis for me, the prey he bore from Troy, That she hath sworn his death, and edged the steel! Ye wands, ye wreaths that cling around my neck, Ye showed me prophetess yet scorned of all-- I stamp you into death, or e'er I die-- Down, to destruction! Thus I stand revenged-- Go, crown some other with a prophet's woe. 79
