Now comes Ismenè forth. Ah, see,
From clouds above her brow
The sister-loving tear

Distaining all her passion-crimson’d face!

Dort tritt vor das Thor Ismene heraus,
Die Thränen der Lieb' um die Schwester vergießt:
525
Ein Gewölk um die Brauen entstellt ihr Gesicht,
Rothglühend im Schmerz,
Und bethaut liebreizende Wangen.
Ismene (die von Dienern Kreons herbeigeführt wird). Die Vorigen.

Lo ! At the portal stands the fair Ismene,
Tears in her lovely eyes, a cloud of grief
Sits on her brow, wetting her beauteous cheek
With pious sorrow for a sister's fate.

κατὰ δάκρυα λείβειν

εἰβομένη
should have become
λειβομένη
in the MSS., the latter word being much the commoner.

526-530. mvp-comment-308-1 Here comes Ismene forth, shedding sisterly tears; from clouds above her brow, that moisten her fair cheek, doing disgrace unto her flushed countenance. Cp. Sh Shakespeare, Midsummer Night's Dream, 1. 1, Lys. Why is your cheek so pale? | How chance the roses there do fade so fast? | Herm. Belike, for want of rain, which I could well | Beteem them from the tempest of mine eyes. Ant. and Cleo. 3. 2. 52. Il. 17. 591, ἄχεος νεφέλη: Eur. Hipp. 173, ὀφρύων νέφος: Aesch. Prom. 144-145, ὀμίχλα .. πλήρης δακρύων.

527. mvp-comment-309-1 δάκρυ᾽ εἰβομένη is the Triclinian reading for δάκρυα λειβόμενα. δάκρυ λειβομένη has been conjectured. But the construction, with φιλάδελφα adverbial, is less simple and therefore less pathetic. δάκρυα εἰβομένη is read in M³.

529. mvp-comment-310-1 ῥέθος Eur. Η. F. 1204, πάρες ἀπ᾿ ὀμμάτων | πέπλον . . ῥέθος ἀελίῳ δεῖξον.
