Excerpt from Studies in Sophocles

To state my view at the outset, Electra means: With a boast about the slaughter of which, he shot and hit. We have here precisely the form of sentence we find in Plutarch, Sarto n'u: I I spay Xap¿duec 8caifa9. The theory that Sophocles could have intended the first participle to be construed with mxcivet (bahia! Swinging 03 to itself at the end) is untenable.
