    Electra

    Hasten your step, it is time; go onward, onward, weeping! Ah me! [115]  I am Agamemnon's child, and Clytemnestra, hated daughter of Tyndareus, bore me; the citizens call me unhappy Electra. [120]  Alas for my cruel pain and hateful life! O father, Agamemnon, you lie in Hades, by the butchery of your wife and Aegisthus.
