this
guilty
head?

error

Foreign_language
Wretched
hour!
On
thee
Alcides
dies
These
impious
hands
have
sent
my
injured
lord
untimely
to
the
shades
Let
me
be
bound!
Chain
me,
if
you
will,
to
your
iron
bands,
and
Lash
my
guilty
breast
with
whips
of
scorpion
See,
see
they
come,
Ganyta
with
her
Snakes,
Gera
fell,
and
black
Tisiphone
See
the
dreadful
sisters
rise
Their
baneful
presence
taints
the
skies
See,
see,
see,
see
the
dreadful
sisters
rise
Their
baneful
presence
taints
the
skies
See,
see
the
snaking
whips
they
bear
With
yelling
rend
my
tortured
ear,
my
tortured
ear
Hide
me,
hide
me
from
their
hated
sight
Friendly
shades
of
blackest
night
Hide
me,
hide
me,
friendly
shades...
See,
see
the
dreadful
sisters
rise
Their
baneful
presence
taints
the
skies
See,
see,
see,
see
the
snaking
whips,
the
snaking
whips
they
bear
With
yelling
rend
my
tortured
ear
With
yelling
rend
my
tortured
ear,
my
tortured
ear
Hide
me
from
their
hated
sight
Friendly
shades
of
blackest
night
Alas!
