...living with her paramour, Aegisthus. The king, however, brings the captive Trojan priestess, Cassandra, in his train, and if the queen is guilty, her lord is not free from blame. The most dramatic scene of the play is that in which Cassandra before the palace doors vividly foresees the fate that awaits both herself and Agamemnon within. She is helpless, however, to avert the terrible tragedy. After she enters the doors, the death cries of the king are heard from within, and the masterful queen is seen exulting over the two murdered bodies. She then quiets Aegisthus, whom she saves...

Surely we do this in ignorance and blindness; for what more pitiable fate could man have than to be, as it were, an orphan, cut off from all intercourse with...
