Nor one dare trip the other,

My tongue had played the prophet’s part,

And rolled the burden from my heart;

But now, to doubt resigned,

With smothered fears, all dumb I wait

The unravelling hour; while sparks of fate

Flit through my darksome mind.

Enter Clytemnestra.

Clytemnestra.

Come thou, too, in; this maid, I mean; Cassandra!
