“… aut Agamemnonius scēnīs agitātus Orestēs”
… or [like] Agamemnon’s [son] Orestes, tormented onstage [by his dead] mother [who is] armed with torches and black snakes, …. (A poetic plural reference to theatrical performances of the tragedy.)
““Obscaenum” dictum ab “scaena”; eam, ut Graeci, Accius scribit “scena”.”
Obscaenum ‘foul’ is said from scaena ‘stage’; this word Accius writes scena, like the Greeks.
“… tum silvīs scēna coruscīs”
Further on [there is] a backdrop with waving woods above; a dark forest overhanging and trembling with shade.
