Iphigenia at Aulis

Iphigenia at Aulis  (After Euripides)   They stripped her stark, then threw her body bare      Backwards upon the altar of their fear;      But as the sacred knife was sharply drawn Across her throat, she changed — into a fawn!.

Iphigenia at Aulis

 (After Euripides)

 

They stripped her stark, then threw her body bare

     Backwards upon the altar of their fear;

     But as the sacred knife was sharply drawn

Across her throat, she changed — into a fawn!.
