O Persephone, grant us indeed a glorious victory!
Orestes
Father, remember the bath where you were robbed of life.
Electra
And remember how they devised a strange net to cast about you.
Orestes
You were caught, my father, in fetters forged by no smiths hand.
Electra
And in a fabric shamefully devised.
