ELECTRA (spoken)<br />
Let me remember. I am she,<br />
Agamemnon’s child, and the mother of me<br />
Clytemnestra, the evil Queen,<br />
Helen’s sister. And folk, I ween,<br />
That pass in the streets call yet my name<br />
<strong>Electra</strong>… God protect my shame!<br />
For <strong>to</strong>il, <strong>to</strong>il is a weary thing,<br />
And life is heavy about my head;<br />
And thou far off, O Father and King,<br />
In the lost lands of the dead.<br />
A bloody twain made these things be;<br />
One was thy bitterest enemy,<br />
And one the wife that lay by thee.<br />
