Aeschylus, agamemnon And wrought the woe that shattered all. antistrophe 1 CHORUS Fiend of the race! that swoopest fell Upon the double stock of Tantalus, Lording it o'er me by a woman's will, Stern, manful, and imperious-- A bitter sway to me! Thy very form I see, Like some grim raven, perched upon thc slain, Exulting o'er the crime, aloud, in tuneless strain! CLYTEMNESTRA chanting Right was that word--thou namest well The brooding race-fiend, triply fell! From him it is that murder's thirst, Blood-lapping, inwardly is nursed-- Ere time the ancient scar can sain, New blood comes welling forth again. 94
Aeschylus, agamemnon strophe 2 CHORUS Grim is his wrath and heavy on our home, That fiend of whom thv voice has cried, Alas, an omened cry of woe unsatisfied, An all-devouring doom! Ah woe, ah Zeus! from Zeus all things befall-- Zeus the high cause and finisher of all!-- Lord of our mortal state, by him are willed All things, by him fulfilled! refrain 1 Yet ah my king, my king no more! What words to say, what tears to pour Can tell my love for thee? The spider-web of treachery She wove and wound, thy life around, And lo! I see thee lie, And thro' a coward, impious wound Pant forth thv life and die! A death of shame--ah woe on woe! A treach'rous hand, a cleaving blow! 95
