Clytemnestra [opening the women's door and coming out]: What's the matter? What's this cry that you're raising through the house?
Servant: The dead are killing the living, I tell you!
Clytemnestra: Ah me, I understand your riddling words! We are going to perish by deception, just as we killed by deception. Someone give me, right away, an axe that can kill a man! [The servant goes inside.] Let us find out whether we're to be the winners or the losers – for that's what I've come to in this evil business.
[Orestes comes out through the main door, sword in hand.]
Orestes: You're just who I'm looking for; he [pointing back into the house] has been satisfactorily dealt with.
Clytemnestra: Ah me! Mighty Aegisthus, my beloved, are you dead?
Orestes: You love the man? In that case you can lie in the same grave – and now he's dead, you'll certainly never betray him!
Clytemnestra [baring one breast]: Stop, my son, and have respect, my child, for this breast, at which you many times drowsed while sucking the nourishing milk with your gums!
– Aeschylus, from The Libation-Bearers (458 BC), translated by Alan H. Sommerstein (2008)
