Medea: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned' is an idiom that is adapted from a line in William Congreve's play, The Mourning Bride (1697). The line from which it came is 'Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.”
A dangerous woman indeed with quite a track record of murder! Jason, you should have been warned to upset her at your peril!🙄

Alcestis: The title of the play is the queen of Admetus, who has offered herself as a sacrifice to die in his place, when none of his kinsfolk was prepared to be a martyr. After this event occurs, he swears that he would have been better off dying, rather than have years of grief, misery and anguish to look foward to. He fights with his father-in-law but help arrives in the form of Heracles, who performs a miracle!
