Stories from the Greek Tragedians (Electronic book text)

I have added to the -Story of the Seven Chiefs against Thebes- the description of the single combat between Eteocles and Polynices, which occurs in the Phoenissae of Euripides. Some changes have been made in the -Story of Ion- to make it more suitable for the purpose of this book. Throughout the Stories compression and omission have been freely used. I can only ask the indulgence of such of my readers as may be familiar with the great originals of which I have given these pale and ineffectual copies
