...third episode opens with the approach of Agamemnon and his train. The king, seated in his chariot, greets the gods of the land, and acknowledges the welcome given him by the chorus. Clytaemnestra appears, followed by attendants carrying rich clothes of purple. She describes the anxiety which she had felt for the king's safety, and tells how she had sent Orestes, the pledge and symbol of their plighted troth, to the home of a distant friend, that he might not be exposed to danger in case of a revolt in the land. Agamemnon, enjoining the queen to treat kindly...
