Euripides, Electra, 67-70


ἐγώ ς' ἴσον θεοῖσιν ἡγοῦμαι φίλον:I hold you equal to the gods in kindness, for in my distress you have not insulted me. It is a great allotment for mortal


ἐν τοῖς ἐμοῖς γὰρ οὐκ ἐνύβρισας κακοῖς.I hold you equal to the gods in kindness, for in my distress you have not insulted me. It is a great allotment for mortal


μεγάλη δὲ θνητοῖς μοῖρα συμφορᾶς κακῆςI hold you equal to the gods in kindness, for in my distress you have not insulted me. It is a great allotment for mortal


ἰατρὸν εὑρεῖν, ὡς ἐγὼ σὲ λαμβάνω.to find a healer for ill fortune, such as I have in you. And so, even though unbidden, I ought to share your labors, relieving you of work as far as I have strength, so that you may bear it more easily. You have enough to do outside; I must keep the house
