is it no sin thus to pray?






- Pray that there come to them or man or god…

- A judge? Or an avenger? Speak thy prayer.

- Plain be thy word: one who shall slay the slayer.

- But dare I? Is it no sin thus to pray?

- How else? With hate thine hater to repay.

Aeschylus; Choëphoroe (The Libation Bearers)
