Euripides, Orestes, 615-629


μᾶλλον δ' ἐκείνη σοῦ θανεῖν ἐστ' ἀξίαShe deserves to die even more than you, for it was she who embittered you against your mother, always carrying tales to your ear to increase your hate the more, announcing dreams from Agamemnon, and Aegisthus’ bed


ἣ τῇ τεκούσῃ ς' ἠγρίως', ἐς οὖς ἀεὶShe deserves to die even more than you, for it was she who embittered you against your mother, always carrying tales to your ear to increase your hate the more, announcing dreams from Agamemnon, and Aegisthus’ bed


πέμπουσα μύθους ἐπὶ τὸ δυσμενέστερονShe deserves to die even more than you, for it was she who embittered you against your mother, always carrying tales to your ear to increase your hate the more, announcing dreams from Agamemnon, and Aegisthus’ bed


ὀνείρατ' ἀγγέλλουσα τὰ ̓ΑγαμέμνονοςShe deserves to die even more than you, for it was she who embittered you against your mother, always carrying tales to your ear to increase your hate the more, announcing dreams from Agamemnon, and Aegisthus’ bed


καὶ τοῦθ' — ὃ μισήσειαν — Αἰγίσθου λέχος —She deserves to die even more than you, for it was she who embittered you against your mother, always carrying tales to your ear to increase your hate the more, announcing dreams from Agamemnon, and Aegisthus’ bed


οἱ νέρτεροι θεοί: καὶ γὰρ ἐνθάδ' ἦν πικρόν:may the gods in Hades loathe it! for even here on earth it was bitter; till she set the house ablaze with fires never kindled by Hephaestus.


ἕως ὑφῆψε δῶμ' ἀνηφαίστῳ πυρί.may the gods in Hades loathe it! for even here on earth it was bitter; till she set the house ablaze with fires never kindled by Hephaestus.


Μενέλαε, σοὶ δὲ τάδε λέγω δράσω τε πρός:Menelaus, I tell you this, and I will do it, too: if you then consider my hatred or our marriage connection of any account, do not ward off this man’s doom in defiance of the gods


εἰ τοὐμὸν ἔχθος ἐναριθμῇ κῆδός τ' ἐμόνMenelaus, I tell you this, and I will do it, too: if you then consider my hatred or our marriage connection of any account, do not ward off this man’s doom in defiance of the gods


μὴ τῷδ' ἀμύνειν φόνον ἐναντίον θεοῖς:Menelaus, I tell you this, and I will do it, too: if you then consider my hatred or our marriage connection of any account, do not ward off this man’s doom in defiance of the gods


ἔα δ' ὑπ' ἀστῶν καταφονευθῆναι πέτροιςbut leave him to be stoned to death by the citizens, or do not set foot on Spartan land.
