Child
I am left young and cut adrift from my dear mother. Oh, I have suffered terrible grief, [410] and you, dear sister, have suffered it too.
* O father, it was all in vain, all in vain that you wedded and yet did not come to the end of your life with her. For she died first. And since you have gone, [415] Mother, the house is utterly destroyed.
Euripides. Euripides, with an English translation by David Kovacs. Cambridge. Harvard University Press. 1994.
