SCENE VI.

ARSINOE.
There's more in him than going hence to-morrow.
Why feels he such compunction for the king?
What's this new confidence of which he spoke?
She cannot live, if he abandon her:
Then is he dearer to her than her life;
And dearer much than Agamemnon's life.—
And still he says, he will depart to-morrow.
Has she proposed to him, then, to remain?
Has she devised the murder of the king?
Horrible thought! O guilt, where is thy limit?
Since they have shut me from their councils now,
I'll play the spy; I'll be the ruler still.
I'll teach her yet, that she is in my power.
