Some serpent amphisbene, some Skylla, deep Housed in the rock, where sailors shriek and die, Mother of Hell blood-raging, which doth cry On her own flesh war, war without alloy . . .
God ! And she shouted in his face her joy, Like men in battle when the foe doth break.
And feigns thanksgiving for his safety's sake !
What if no man believe me ? 'Tis all one.
The thing which must be shall be ; aye, and soon Thou too shalt sorrow for these things, and here Standing confess me all too true a seer.
...Leader.

Man, thou shalt look on Agamemnon dead.
Leader.
Peace, Mouth of Evil ! Be those words unsaid !
Cassandra.
No god of peace hath watch upon that hour.
Leader.
If it must come. Forefend it. Heavenly Power !
Cassandra.
