• Choral ode from 'Orestes' (Euripides, c.408 BC)

You wild goddesses who dart across the skies
seeking vengeance for murder, we beg you to free
Agamemnon’s son from his raging fury....
We grieve for this boy. Happiness is brief among mortals.
Sorrow and anguish sweep down on it
like a swift gust of wind on a sail boat,
and it sinks under the tossing seas.
