SCENE THE SIXTH
ORESTES, CLYTEMNESTRA and ELECTRA.ELECTRA.
O my distracting fears!—my brother—
ORESTES.
Gods!
Comes disappointment at my fortune's crisis?
ELECTRA.
Nay, do not linger—
ORESTES.
Will not—

Go, my children,
And be the Gods your guides to sure escape.
ORESTES.
Will you not with us seek one common safety?
CLYTEMNESTRA.
Preserve yourselves—my fortune cannot wrong me—
Nor will I hazard or impede your flight.
ORESTES.
Electra—
ELECTRA.
Say—
ORESTES.
You must not stay behind.
ELECTRA.
I will not.
ORESTES.
Follow near me—
ELECTRA.
On—lead on.
