    Years that bring me labour accurst of hurtling spears��

    Woe that hath no respite or end��

    But wide´spread over the plains of Troy

    Works sorrow and shame for Hellas' sons。



                                                        antistrophe 1



    Would he had vanished away from the earth��

    Rapt to the skies�察�or sunk to devouring Hades��

    He who first revealed to the Greeks the use of arms

    Leagued in fierce confederate war��

    Ah�察�toils eternally breeding toils��

    Yea�察�he was the fiend who wrought man's ruin。



                                                            strophe 2



    The wretch accurst�察�what were his gifts��

    Neither the glad�察�festival wreath��

    Nor the divine�察�mirth´giving wine´cup��

    No music of flutes�察�soothing and sweet��

    Slumber by night�察�blissful and calm��

    None he bequeathed us。

    And love's joys�察�alas� �love did he banish from me。

    Here couching alone neglected��

    With hair by unceasing dews drenched evermore�察�we curse

    Thy shores�察�O cruel Ilium。



                                                        antistrophe 2



    Erewhile against terror by night��

    javelin or sword�察�firm was our trust��

    He was our shield�察�valiant Ajax。

    But now a malign demon of fate

    Claims him。 Alas� �When�察�when again

    Shall joy befall me��

    Oh once more to stand�察�where on the wooded headland

    The ocean is breaking�察�under

    The shadow of Sunium's height�察�thence could I greet from far

    The divine city of Athens。

              ��TEUCER enters�察�followed by AGAMEMNON and his retinue。��

  TEUCER

    In haste I come�察�for the captain of the host��

    Agamemnon�察�I have seen hurrying hither。

    To a perverse tongue now will he give rein。

  AGAMEMNON

    Is it you�察�they tell me�察�have dared to stretch your lips

    In savage raillery against us�察�unpunished��

    'Tis you I mean�察�the captive woman's son。

    Verily of well´born mother had you been bred��

    Superb had been your boasts and high your strut��

    Since you�察�being nought�察�have championed one who is nought��

    Vowing that no authority is ours

    By sea or land to rule the Greeks or you。

    Are not these monstrous taunts to hear from slaves��

    What was this man whose praise you vaunt so loudly��

    Whither went he�察�or where stood he�察�where I was not��

    Among the Greeks are there no men but he��

    In evil hour�察�it seems�察�did we proclaim

    The contest for Achilles' panoply��

    If come what may Teucer is to call us knaves��

    And if you never will consent�察�though worsted��

    To accept the award that seemed just to most judges��

    But either must keep pelting us with foul words��

    Or stab us craftily in your rage at losing。

    Where such discords are customary�察�never

    Could any law be stablished and maintained��

    If we should thrust the rightful winners by��

    And bring the rearmost to the foremost place。

    But such wrong must be checked。 'Tis not the big

    Broad´shouldered men on whom we most rely��

    No�察�'tis the wise who are masters everywhere。

    An ox�察�however large of rib�察�may yet

    Be kept straight on the road by a little whip。

    And this corrective�察�I perceive�察�will soon

    Descend on you�察�unless you acquire some wisdom��

    Who�察�though this man is dead�察�a mere shade now��

    Can wag your insolent lips so freely and boldly。

    Come to your senses�此�think what you are by birth。

    Bring hither someone else�察�a man born free��

    Who in your stead may plead your cause before us。

    For when you speak�察�the sense escapes me quite��

    I comprehend not your barbarian tongue。

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS

    Would that you both might learn wisdom and temperance。

    There is no better counsel I can give you。

  TEUCER

    Alas� �how soon gratitude to the dead

    Proves treacherous and vanishes from men's minds��

    If for thee�察�Ajax�察�this man has no more

    The least word of remembrance�察�he for whom oft

    Toiling in battle thou didst risk thy life。

    But all that is forgotten and flung aside。

    Thou who but now wast uttering so much folly��

    Hast thou no memory left�察�how in that hour

    When�察�pent within your lines�察�you were already

    No more than men of nought�察�routed in battle��

    He alone stood forth to save you�察�while the flames

    Were blazing round the stern´decks of the ships

    Already�察�and while Hector�察�leaping high

    Across the trench�察�charged down upon the hulls��

    Who checked this ruin�拭�Was it not he�察�who nowhere

    So much as stood beside thee�察�so thou sayest��

    Would you deny he acted nobly there��

    Or when again chosen by lot�察�unbidden��

    Alone in single combat he met Hector��

    For no runaway's lot did he cast in��

    No lump of clammy earth�察�but such that first

    It should leap lightly from the crested helm��

    His were these exploits�察�and beside him stood

    I the slave�察�the barbarian mother's son。

    Wretch�察�with what face can you fling forth such taunts��

    Know you not that of old your father's father

    Was Pelops�察�a barbarian�察�and a Phrygian��

    That your sire Atreus set before his brother

    A feast most impious of his own children's flesh��

    And from a Cretan mother you were born��

    Whom when her father found her with a paramour��

    He doomed her for dumb fishes to devour。

    Being such�察�do you reproach me with my lineage��

    Telamon is the father who begat me��

    Who�察�as the foremost champion of the Greeks��

    Won as his bride my mother�察�a princes

    By birth�察�Laomedon's daughter�此�a chosen spoil

    She had been given him by Alcmena's son。

    Thus of two noble parents nobly born��

    How should I shame one of my blood�察�whom now��

    Laid low by such calamity�察�you would thrust

    Unburied forth�察�and feel no shame to say it��

    But of this be sure�此�wheresoever you may cast him��

    Us three also with him will you cast forth。

    For it beseems me in his cause to die

    In sight of all�察�rather than for the sake

    Of your wife´or your brother's should I say��

    Look then not to my interest�察�but your own。

    For if you assail me�察�you shall soon wish rather

    To have been a coward than too bold against me。

                                                   ��ODYSSEUS enters。��

  LEADER

    In good time�察�King Odysseus�察�hast thou come��

    If 'tis thy purpose not to embroil but reconcile。

  ODYSSEUS

    What is it�察�friends�拭�Far off I heard high words

    From the Atreidae over this hero's corpse。

  AGAMEMNON

    Royal Odysseus�察�but now from this man

    We have been listening to most shameful taunts。

  ODYSSEUS

    How shameful�拭�I could find excuse for one

    Who�察�when reviled�察�retorts with bitter words。

  AGAMEMNON

    Yes�察�I repaid his vile deeds with reviling。

  ODYSSEUS

    What has he done thee whereby thou art wronged��

  AGAMEMNON

    He says he will not leave yon corpse unhonoured

    By sepulture�察�but will bury it in my spite。

  ODYSSEUS

    May now a friend speak out the truth�察�yet still

    As ever ply his oar in stroke with thine��

  AGAMEMNON

    Speak�此�I should be witless else�察�for thee

    Of all the Greeks I count the greatest friend。

  ODYSSEUS

    Then listen。 For the gods' sake venture not

    Thus ruthlessly to cast forth this man unburied��

    And in no wise let violence compel thee

    To such deep hate that thou shouldst tread down justice。

    Once for me too this man was my worst foe��

    From that hour when I won Achilles' arms��

    Yet�察�though he was such towards me�察�I would not so

    Repay him with dishonour as to deny

    That of all Greeks who came to Troy�察�no hero

    So valiant save Achilles have I seen。

    So it is not just thou shouldst dishonour him。

    Not him wouldst thou be wronging�察�but the laws

    Of heaven。 It is not righteousness to outrage

    A brave man dea
