Cassandra
Ah, damned woman, will you do this thing? Your husband, the partner of your bed, when you have cheered him with the bath, will you—how shall I tell the end? [1110] Soon it will be done. Now this hand, now that, she stretches forth!

Chorus
Not yet do I comprehend; for now, after riddles, I am bewildered by dark oracles.
