Euripides, Andromache, 891

ὦ ναυτίλοισι χείματος λιμὴν φανεὶς

HERMIONE: Son of Agamemnon, thy appearing is as a haven from the storm to sailors; by thy knees I pray, have pity on me in my distress, on me of whose fortunes thou art inquiring. About thy knees I twine my arms with all the force of sacred fillets. ORESTES: Ha! what is this? Am I mistaken or do I really see before me the queen of this palace, the daughter of Menelaus? HERMIONE: The same, that only child whom Helen, daughter of Tyndareus, bore my father in his halls; never doubt that. ORESTES: O saviour Phoebus, grant us respite from our woe! But what is the matter? art thou afflicted by gods or men? HERMIONE: Partly by myself, partly by the man who wedded me, and partly by some god. On every side I see ruin.
