Chapter 42

'Thou sayst it, and not I; for thou hast done

The ugly deed that made these ugly words.'

SOPHOCLES: Electra.

'Yea, it becomes a man

To cherish memory, where he had delight.

For kindness is the natural birth of kindness.

Whose soul records not the great debt of joy,

Is stamped for ever an ignoble man.'

SOPHOCLES: Ajax.
