  1. Am I not wretched?
Menelaus
  1. I brought you back from Troy to be a victim—
Orestes
  1. If only she had been!
Menelaus
  1. After innumerable troubles.
Orestes
  1. Except where I was concerned.
Menelaus
  1. I have suffered dreadfully!
Orestes
  1. Yes, for you would not help me then.
Menelaus
  1. You have me there.
