Blow after blow she deals at him.
Chor. Still I comprehend not. The riddling thickly- veiled prophecy leaves me at fault.
Cass. Oh ! what is here .' what apparition ? Is it a hunting-net of hell'*.' Nay, it is the snare that surprises him in his repose, that hath part in slaying him. Let the troop that never has enough in de- vouring the race shout exultingly over the heinous sacrifice.
Chor. Why summonest thou that Fury to lift her II20 voice in the palace ? Thy words oppress me with gloom. An...d to my heart the pale death-drop runs'^j that in men mortally wounded sinks together with the setting rays of life.
Cass. Ah ! Look ! look ! look ! Hold off the Bull there from the Cow ! She hath caught him in the web, and is goring him with her iron horn ! He falls in the hollow water-vessel. I am telling you the story of the crafty murderous basin.
1130 Chor. I would not boast great skill as an interpreter.
But to my mind, that prophecy augurs harm. Yet what good word hath prophecy for the world !
