mvp-comment-815-2 Campbell remarks: ‘After a glance of horrified recognition at the corpse, Aegisthus looks strangely on Orestes.

τίνα
=

.’ He refers both
φοβεῖ
and

, then, to the fear and bewilderment with which Aegisthus looks at Orestes. But the words of Orestes thus lose the grim force which belongs to them as a comment on
οἴμξι, τί λεύσσω
;
