CHORUS: Did you hear? Oh, did you hear?

The queen’s pitiful words

That tell of a fate too cruel for hearing?

Beloved queen, let me die

Before my heart should know your heart’s despair!

Oh, Phaedra, daughter of sorrow!

Oh, sorrow, nurse of our race!

Oh, deadly truth brought into sudden light!

What now awaits you every hour of this day?

Fate hangs unknown over your house.

Aphrodite sent you an unhappy star,

Princess of Crete;

We see now where it will sink and set.

PHAEDRA has left her bed and moved downstage.
