What say'st thou? This is new: and death on death
Is heap'd. My wife a bleeding victim slain !
Thou may'st behold her, to the private scenes
Allotted to the females not removed.
Wretch that I am, another ill I see,
A second ill: and me, unhappy me
What fate yet waits? Before me lies my son
1335
Late slain, and there another new in death;
1335
Unhappy mother, and unhappy son!
1335
Beside the altar by a sudden wound
1335
She fell, and closed her eyes in endless night;
1335
But first lamented the illustrious cave

1335. mvp-comment-738-1 ὅτοισι χρὴ μέλειν The Fates and the Gods below.

1336. mvp-comment-739-1 The middle voice of ἐράω is known to exist (L. and S. s. v.), and may have been used by Sophocles with a pathetic force. Essay on Language § 31. p. 52. This seems more probable than retaining μέν from the later MSS, which has no force, or reading τοιαῦτα or γ' ἅπαντα for ταῦτα. ἐρῶμεν, plur. for sing., can hardly stand with the singular following in the same line.
