Orestes: Stay, poor maid; fear no violence from me.

Electra: O Phoebus Apollo I beseech thee spare my life.

Orestes: Give me the lives of others more my foes than thou!

Electra: Begone! touch me not! thou hast no right to.

Orestes: There is none I have a better right to touch.

Electra: How is it then thou waylayest me, sword in hand, near my
house?

Orestes: Wait and hear, and thou wilt soon agree with me

Electra: Here I stand; I am in thy power in any case, since thou art
the stronger.
