CR. Men of this land, bear witness to his rage!
OED. They see us both, and are aware that I
Repay thee but with words for deeds of wrong.
CR. No longer will I curb my wrath. Though lonely
And cumbered by mine age, I will bear off
This man!
OED. Me miserable!
CH. How bold thou art,
If standing here thou think’st to do this thing!
CR. I do.
CH. Then Athens is to me no city.
CR. Slight men prevail o’er strength in a just cause.
OED. Hear ye his words?
CH. He shall not make them good.
Be witness, Zeus!
