Here does he lie outrager of this female,
Dainty of all the Chruseids under Ilion;
And she the captive, the soothsayer also
And couchmate of this man, oracle-speaker,
Faithful bed-fellow, ay, the sailors benches
They wore in common, nor unpunished did so,
Since he is thus! While, as for her, swan-fashion,
Her latest having chanted, dying wailing
She lies, to him, a sweetheart: me she brought to
My beds by-nicety the whet of dalliance.
1448
CHOROS.
Alas, that some
Fate would come
Upon us in quickness
Neither much sickness
Neither bed-keeping
And bear unended sleeping,
Now that subdued
Is our keeper, the kindest of mood!
Having borne, for a womans sake, much strife
By a woman he withered from life!
1455
Ah me!
Law-breaking Helena who, one,
Hast many, so many souls undone
Neath Troia! and now the consummated
Much-memorable curse
Hast thou made flower-forth, red
