AGAMEMNON.

Yet knows not how to bear the bit o' the bridle
Before she has out-frothed her bloody fierceness.
Not I—throwing away more words—will shamed be!


CHOROS.

But I,—for I compassionate,—will chafe not.
Come, O unhappy one, this car vacating,
Yielding to this necessity, prove yoke's use!


KASSANDRA.

Otototoi, Gods, Earth—
Apollon, Apollon!


CHOROS.

Why didst thou "ototoi" concerning Loxias?
Since he is none such as to suit a mourner.
