You who have caused this great calamity, how did the enemys spies come
without your knowledge, to your shame, and spread destruction through the army, and you did not drive them away either as they entered or left the camp? Who but you shall pay the penalty for this? You, I say, were here to guard the army. But they are gone without a wound, with many a scoff
at Phrygian cowardice, and at me their leader. Now mark you thisby father Zeus I sweareither the scourge or the headsmans axe awaits you for such conduct; or else consider Hector to be nothing, a mere coward.

Chorus
