ye" (emphatic particle)

1 Aesch. often places one yàp in close sequence to another, as Prom. 333, πάντως γὰρ οὐ πείσεις νιν, οὐ γὰρ εὐπιθής. Two such instances in the Agam. are well explained by Linwood (Lex.) (1) 517: Tà d' AUTE XÉρow, καὶ προσῆν πλέον στύγος εὐναὶ γὰρ ἦσαν δηΐων πρὸς τείχεσιν· ἐξ οὐρανοῦ γὰρ κ.τ.λ. The first yap, he says, refers to the first clause, rà d' AûTE XÉPOW, and explains why they were on the land; the second shows why this condition was one of more odious annoyance (πλέον στύγος). (2) 694 τὸ δυσσεβὲς γὰρ ἔργον μέτα μὲν πλείονα τίκτει......οἴκων γὰρ εὐθυδίκων καλλίπαις TOTμos alel. The first yap declares why the Chorus does not agree with an old proverb: 'for,' they say, one crime gives birth to many:' then adding (crime, we say) for as to righteous houses, their lot is to have virtuous offspring.'

The simpler character of Aeschylean style, as compared with that of Sophocles, appears, for instance, in his more sparing use of the expressive

particle ye, which is used in the Agam. about 20 times only, while in the Oedipus T., a shorter play, we find it in about 90 places. As it is specially suited to the tone of lively and disputative dialogue, Aesch. uses it five times in the short stichomuthia which we have discussed in pp. 194-199. (1) Affirmatively with eidus, 'yes, knowing well:' (as in answer to the question, were you harassed by the desire of your fatherland?' the herald replies, ὥστ ̓ ἐνδακρύειν γ ̓ ὄμμασιν χαρᾶς ὕπο, 'yes, so that tears are in my eyes for joy,' 500); (2) the three next examples show ye throwing emphasis on nouns : φήμη γε μέντοι—ὁ δ ̓ ἀφθόνητός γε—τοῖς δ ̓ ὀλβίοις γε ὁ δ ̓ ὕστατός γε. 5ο ἅλις γε. In that which follows it modifies a verb, tápes ye unv, give up at least. In a few places it has its frequent use of emphasising pronouns, τοῦτό γε, ἡμῖν γε, ἔγωγε, and others. Finally it follows other particles with a word between, to which the emphasis belongs; as μalvetai γε, καὶ μὴν πεπωκώς γε, καὶ μὴν ἄγαν γε, οὐκ εἰ παρέσται γε, μὴ δίκτυόν τί γ' "Αιδου; In one place we have confidently introduced it (ἔν γε τοῖς 701) with a preposition: and it stands in two other emendations, ons Ye 893 and κal Tolu ye 1382; but, though we think these probable, we should not insist on them, against any who may prefer τῆσδε and καὶ πολέα.
