You cowardly villain, for that is the only word my tongue can find for
you. A foul accusation on your unmanliness, come to me, you most hated foe of
gods, of me, and of all mankind. This is not a proof of evil to confront your
friends after injuring them, but that worst of all human diseases- loss of shame!

(insult) you and you will be vexed (irritated) at my recital.
(angry, remorseful)Father and home I left; sail with you aboard that good
ship, Argo; when you were sent to tame and yoke fire-breathing bulls that
guarded the Golden Fleece. Father and home I left- because I loved you, Jason,
with all my heart. (outcry)You promised me the world and I believed you. Yes, I
believed you.
(panukna)I saved your life. Every Hellene knows I saved your life, and I
bore you sons, (1,2)my babies. (lungo: 1,2, crying) My beautiful, beautiful babies.

became an exile in my own land. You had me banished because you loved
another woman. You, traitor! (1, 2)

Be gone! Be gone! How I hate you, Jason. But my heart will forever be
yours. (crying: 1, 2; exit while crying). Shouting (backstage): aaahhh!
