non is harmless. The usurper fears Orestes who could take his father's side, Orestes ...tried to enlist your aid (P 86) and is determined to kill the king - fear makes Aegisthus kill his opponent, as Agamemnon had expected: Aegisthus will 'risk it because lie is afraid. ... CP 82) Aegis- thus also forces Clytemnestra to take part in Agamem- non's murder. 4 While the cries of Agamemnon are heard followed by Clytemnestra's screams, Electra implores Orestes to help their father but Orestes is insensi- tive : Death is an ending} Electra. (P 93) And, finally when Aegisthus throws the sword into the center of the stage Electra repeats her supplication: Pick it upj Orestes. Take it and kill them both. (...) You cannot leave... CP 94-5) And Orestes answers sim- ply: No! Let it rest. Let is rot and crumble where it is. CP 95) The last scene takes place in Athens on a hill- side near the beach six months later. Pylades condemns Orestes for his desire to marry Praxithia, the daughter of a fisherman, to escape from his destiny. Wherever Orestes goes he is known as ...Orestes of the Unavenged Father. CP 97) And, by now, he wants to be seen ...as Orestes the simple husband and doting father... CP 97) Pylades cannot bear the idea that because he is Orestes' friend, he will be 31
left out in the world with Orestes' mark upon him: ...Pylades and Orestes, Orestes and Pylades - these names hang together, bound by your crime. CP 98) Next, Pylades wants Orestes to think of what he has done and of what he has been doing in relation to his father's death. And, as they reach no conclusion they decide to separate. Pylades: ...I am no moral person, but would I stand by and see my father murdered? (P 98) ...Your father was murdered and you accepted drinking money from his assassin... CP 99) In the next part, Praxithia, Orestes' fiancee, tells Orestes that she is forbidden to marry him because the priests of Athens refused to give their blessing to the marriage according to the traditions of the city. The priests said that Agamemnon's murder was unavenged and that Orestes, being his son, shared the murderers'guilt. The pronouncement of the oracle only confirms the priests' words: ...The Orestes known to the gods is not yet born... (P 102) When Cassandra arrives in Athens she brings with her the money from Aegisthus to cover Orestes' ex- penses for another six months. But, Orestes refuses the money. Then Cassandra tells Orestes about Aegis- thus' policy in Argos. First, Aegisthus had given Cas- 32
