I do not think that a slave-like death has befallen him 1 ; for did not he bring insidious Atè to his dwelling? But as he wrought upon my scion that was raised from him, Iphigenia, child much lamented, things worthy such deserts 2 he hath suffered ; let him not proudly vaunt himself in Hades, having atoned by the death of the sword for deeds he first wrought.

No: of his death far otherwise I deem,
Nothing diſloyal. Nor with fecret guile
Wrought he his murd’rous miſchiefs on this houſe.
1700
For my ſweet flowret, opening from his ſtem,
My Iphigenia, my lamented child,
Whom he unjustly flew, he juſtly died.
Nor let him glory in the ſhades below;
For as he taught his ſword to thirst for blood,
1705
So by the thirsty ſword his blood was ſhed,

I deem not that the death he died
Had overmuch of shame:
For this was he who did provide
1775
Foul wrong unto his house and name:
His daughter, blossom of my womb,
He gave unto a deadly doom,
Iphigenia, child of tears.
And as he wrought, even so he fares.
1780
Nor be his vaunt too loud in hell;
For by the sword his sin he wrought,
And by the sword himself is brought
Among the dead to dwell.

Kein schmachvoll Todesgeschick war, traun,
Agamemnons Loos.
Spann er nicht blutige Tücke zuerst
In dem Hause mir an?
1475
Der das Kind mir erschlug, das von ihm ich empfing,
Das ich ewig bewein', Iphigenien, ach!
Nahm würdigen Lohn für würdige That:
Er brüste sich nicht in des Hades Haus,
Da der mordende Stahl
1480
Das Verschuldete nur ihm vergolten!
