Chor. Thou talkest of thy death; we hail the word;

And make our own the fortune it implies.

Clytæm. Nay, let us not do other evil deeds,

Thou dearest of all friends. An ill-starred harvest

It is to have reaped so many. Enough of woe:

Let no more blood be shed: Go thou—[to the Chorus]—go ye,

Ye aged sires, to your allotted homes,

Ere ye do aught amiss and dree your weird:

[*]This that we have done ought to have sufficed;
