Iphigenie. Hfilas ! si vous m'aimez, si pour grace dernifere Vous daignez d'une amante ^couter la pri6re, C'est maintenant, Seigneur, qu'il faut me le prouver.
Car enfin, ce cruel que tous allez braver, Get ennemi barbare, injuste, sanguinaire, Songez, quoi qu'il ait fait, songez qu'U est mon pfere.
Achille. Lui, votre pfere I Aprfes son horrible dessein, Je ne le oonnais plus que pour votre assassin.
114 CORNEILLE AND EACINE IN ENGLAND and put in practice a principle whose worst result is reac...hed in Gibber's absurd change in the ending of the Cid. Boyer had studied the English carefully, with a mind sharpened by the necessity of making his living among them, and he conceived the idea of changing the last act of IphigSnie into an elaborate spectacle.
Ulysses' account of the rescue of the heroine is too tame to suit the English, he thinks, and accordingly he has the rescue performed on the stage. There are minute stage directions for the sacrificial scene : bands of priests singing invocations to Diana, choruses, an eclipse of the sun, thunder and lightning, " Diana in a Machine crosses the stage," Eriphile kills herself in the full glare of the footlights ; and in general the author endeavors to give his audience something to pay them for having waited through four long acts of nothing but dialogue.
