SCENE THE FIFTH.
Electra, Ægisthus, Clytemnestra.Elec.
It still remains for thee to murder me,
Thou impious, vile assassin of my father...
But what do I behold? Oh heaven! my mother?
Flagitious lady, dost thou grasp the sword?
Did'st thou commit the murder?
Ægis.
Hold thy peace.
Stop not my path thus; quickly I return;
Tremble: for now I am the King of Argos.
Far more important is it that I kill
Orestes, than Electra.
