Justice on her, to avenge his father slain.

IPHIGENIA.
Alas!
A bad false duty bravely hath he wrought.

ORESTES.

IPHIGENIA.

ORESTES.
Electra lives, unmated and alone.

IPHIGENIA.

IPHIGENIA.
Poor child! Poor father, too, who killed and lied!

ORESTES.
For a bad woman's worthless sake she died.

IPHIGENIA.
