[Image Description: 4 quotes from plays and 1 painting. The quotes read as follows, 1: “Someone will see to you! The evil you are is the evil you get.” 2: “Klytemnestra: ‘If you kill me, you kill yourself. Orestes—‘ / Orestes: ‘You did wrong. Now you suffer wrong.’” 3: “He filled this house like a mixing bowl to the brim with evils, now he has drunk it down.” 4: “Menelaos: ‘No, don’t do it!’ / Orestes: ‘Oh, be quiet. Endure what you deserve.’” The painting is of King Agamemnon, murdered in his bath, with a net embroidered over him in red. End description.]
