Χορός

— ἰὼ ἰὼ τάλαινα μελέων κακῶν·

ἔπαθες, εἰργάσω

τοσοῦτον ὥστε τούσδε συγχέαι δόμους.

— αἰαῖ τόλμας, ὦ βιαίως θανοῦσ’

ἀνοσίῳ τε συμφορᾷ, σᾶς χερὸς

πάλαισμα μελέας.
815

— τίς ἄρα σάν, τάλαιν’, ἀμαυροῖ ζόαν;

Woe! woe is thee for thy piteous lot! thou hast done thyself a hurt deep enough to overthrow this family. Ah! ah! the daring of it! done to death by violence and unnatural means, the desperate effort

weh, wehe dir! Welch unerhdrtes Leid!

Arme, du litt'st, du that'st

So Schweres, daß dies ganze Haus in Trümmer stürzt!

Dich in den Tod gerafft, ein unheilig Loos,

Gewalt deiner Hand!

Wer trübt', armes Weib, also das Leben dir?
