Aeschylus Agamemnon 1100

Edmund Doidge Anderson Morshead (Translator)

God! 'tis another crime—
Worse than the storied woe of olden time,
Cureless, abhorred, that one is plotting here—
A shaming death, for those that should be dear!
Alas! and far away in foreign land
1265
He that should help doth stand!
