...three oldest play of the poet whose dates are known, seems to us a more painful tale than it did to the Athenians. We love children and sympathize with them more than the ancients, who only valued their offspring as a means of perpetuating the family name and traditions. The great attraction of the play lies in the fact that it illustrates the character of the best Greek work...
