Yes, but it is the husbands toil that supports them while they sit at home.
Clytaemestra
You seem resolved, my child, to kill your mother.
Orestes
You will kill yourself, not I.
Clytaemestra
Take care: beware the hounds of wrath that avenge a mother.
Orestes
And how shall I escape my fathers if I leave this undone?
