Medea

by Euripides

Translated by Arthur S. Way (1894)

Abandoned in Corinth by Jason, who has taken the king's daughter as his new bride, the sorceress Medea plans a vengeance that will cost her what she loves most. Arthur Way renders Euripides' tragedy in rhymed English verse, with the choral odes in lyric measures.
