Ἠλέκτρα
ἰώ μοί μοι δύστηνος.
Παιδαγωγός
καὶ μὴν θυρῶν ἔδοξα προσπόλων τινὸς
ὑποστενούσης ἔνδον αἰσθέσθαι, τέκνον.
Ὀρέστης
80ἆρ᾽ ἐστὶν ἡ δύστηνος Ἠλέκτρα: θέλεις
μείνωμεν αὐτοῦ κἀπακούσωμεν γόων;
Παιδαγωγός
ἥκιστα: μηδὲν πρόσθεν ἢ τὰ Λοξίου
πειρώμεθ᾽ ἔρδειν κἀπὸ τῶνδ᾽ ἀρχηγετεῖν,
πατρὸς χέοντες λουτρά: ταῦτα γὰρ φέρει
85νίκην τ᾽ ἐφ᾽ ἡμῖν καὶ κράτος τῶν δρωμένων.
