Euripides: The Women of Troy Cassandra, led away as Agamemnon's prize, promises revenge.
Where's the commander's ship? Which way? Come, lose no time, take me on board; Watch for a wind to stir the sails. The prisoner you will bring to Greece Comes as one of three Avengers. Mother, no more tears; farewell!
O my brothers, deep in this dear earth of Troy; my father too, Priam, you whose blood we all inherit! You will not be long Waiting for me. I will come triumphant to the house of Death, When I have brought to ruin the sons of Atreus, who destroyed us all. |
