IPHIGENIA IN TAURIS
And nature will not let you turn away
From your own brother given back to you.
Iphigenia
Ah, you would have me think that you are he.
Orestes is not here. He is in Argos.
Orestes
Poor sister, not in Argos! I am here! 805
Iphigenia
You mean Tyndareus was your mother's father?
Orestes
Yes, and my father's grandfather was Pdops.
Iphigenia
What are you saying? How can I believe you?
Orestes
By asking me more questions—about home.
Iphigenia
Say anything—say anything at all. 810
Orestes
Electra used to tell us about Atreus,
About Thyestes, how they came to quarrel.
Iphigenia
The fight they had over the golden Iambi
Orestes
The tapestry you made of it, yourself.
Iphigenia
Are you Orestes? Is it really you? 815
