Electra: The man is alive?

Orestes: If there be life in me.

Electra: What? Art thou he?

Orestes: Look at this signet, once our father's, and judge if I speak
truth.

Electra: O blissful day!

Orestes: Blissful, in very deed!

Electra: Is this thy voice?

Orestes: Let no other voice reply.

Electra: Do I hold thee in my arms?

Orestes: As mayest thou hold me always!

Electra: Ah, dear friends and fellow-citizens, behold Orestes here,
who was feigned dead, and now, by that feigning hath come safely home!
