——“Ereptæ magno inflammatus amore
Conjugis, et scelerum furiis agitatus Orestes.”
Virg. Æn. iii. 330.
Ὅμως δὲ φεῦγε, μηδὲ μαλθακὸς γένῃ·
Ἐλῶσι γάρ σε καὶ δι’ ἠπείρου μακρᾶς
Βεβῶτ’ ἀνατεὶ τὴν πλανοστιβῆ χθόνα,
Ὑπέρ τε πόντον, καὶ περιῤῥύτας πόλεις.
Æschyl. Eumen. 74.
“Fly! nor inert become. For they (the Furies) shall pursue thee through the long continent, passing untired through the wanderer-trodden earth, through the sea, and the sea-girt cities!”
XIII. —“Through her, too, passed the steel!”
