... be male or female, who is in love with someone and has been with that person for a decade. The speaker is telling the one that he/she loves how the feelings have gone from just being infatuated with them to being “nourished” by them. The tone of the poem is hard to describe; it is actually the “lovey dovey” feeling that should come to the reader while reading this poem. The poem has no set rhyme scheme, and is six lines long in one stanza. Following, is my paraphrase of the poem.

Deep into the first story of “The Oresteia,” better known as “Agamemnon,” Cassandra, who has been cursed by Apollo to be a seer who will never be believed, envisions the death of Agamemnon and herself. It is in this vision that she sees an avenger who will come about and bring justice to the murdered victims, “ We will die, but not without some honor from the gods.
