THE TROJAN WOMEN Andromache. — Why should you weep ? This sorrow is mine. Hecuba. — 0 God . . . Andromache. — What has come to me is mine. Hecuba. — My children . . . Andromache. — Once we lived, not now. Hecuba. — Gone . . . gone . . . happiness . . . Troy. . . . Andromache. — And you bear it. Hecuba. — Sons, noble sons, all lost. Andromache. — Oh, sorrow is here. Hecuba. — For me ... for me. Andromache. — For the city, in its shroud of smoke. Come to me, O my husband. Hecuba. — What you cry to lies in the grave. My son, wretched woman, mine. O country, desolate, empty. Andromache. — My tears fall for you. Hecuba. — ^Look and see the end. . . . Andromache. — Of the house where I bore my children. Hecuba. — 0 children, your mother has lost her city, and you . . . you have left her alone. Only grief is mine and mourning. The dead . . . they have forgotten their pain. They weep no more. Andromache. — Mother of him whose spear of old brought death to Greeks unnumbered, you see what is here. Hecuba. — I see God’s hand that casts the mighty down and sets on high the lowly. Andromache. — Driven like cattle captured in a raid, my child and I . . . the free changed to a slave. Oh, changed indeed. Hecuba. — It is fearful to be helpless. Men just now have taken Cassandra . . . forced her from me.
