ELEKTRA : OIMOI TALAINA.

Now I have grief enough to cry out OIMOI—

Orestes! Poor cold thing.

As you lie in death your own mother insults you.

What a fine sight!

KLYTAIMESTRA : Well you’re no fine sight.

But he looks as fine as can be.

ELEKTRA : Nemesis! Hear her!

KLYTAIMESTRA : Nemesis has heard me. And she has answered.

ELEKTRA : Batter away. This is your hour of luck.

KLYTAIMESTRA : And you think you will stop me, you and Orestes?

ELEKTRA : It is we who are stopped. There’s no stopping you.
