EURIPIDES HOME PAGE / EURIPIDES POEMS
Translated by E. Coleridge.
66 pages - You are on Page 63 Chorus: Ye sons of Zeus, may we draw near to speak with you? Dioscuri: Ye may, since ye are not polluted by this murder. Orestes: May I too share your converse, of Tyndareus? Dioscuri: Thou too! for to Phoebus will I ascribe this deed of blood. Chorus: How was it that ye, the brothers of the murdered woman, gods too, did not ward the doom-goddesses from her roof? Dioscuri: 'Twas fate that brought resistless doom to her, and that thoughtless oracle that Phoebus gave. Electra: But why did the god, and wherefore did his oracles make me my mother's murderer? Dioscuri: A share in the deed, a share in its doom; one ancestral curse hath ruined both of you. Previous Page / First / Next Page of Electra
