Iphigenia: What know'st thou of the chief, men call the bless'd?

Orestes: Who? Of the bless'd was not the chief I knew.

Iphigenia: The royal Agamemnon, son of Atreus.

Orestes: Of him I know not, lady; cease to ask.

Iphigenia: Nay, by the gods, tell me, and cheer my soul.

Orestes: He's dead, the unhappy chief: no single ill.

Iphigenia: Dead! By what adverse fate? O wretched me!

Orestes: Why mourn for this? How doth it touch thy breast?

Iphigenia: The glories of his former state I mourn.
