SCENE I.

CLYTEMNESTRA.
—And Agamemnon will be here to-day!
Triumphant and adorn'd with trojan spoil.—
After ten years of danger, to survive!
What will become of me? O fatal hour,
In which I yielded to my slave, Egysthus:
Had I but held him still in his degree,
Nor with such blazon of my favour, shown
A doting heart to all the crowd of Argos.—
Some courtly sycophant, that woos promotion,
Will blab against us. O deluded victim,
So in the fume and riot of my passion,
To dare destruction. We cannot escape!
