      The Chorus explicitly reports the content of Cassandra's cry ('Slay him...') as part of its narration of the Judgment of Paris myth.

      Would God his mother had smitten him a cruel death-blow on the head before he made his home on Ida’s slopes, in the hour Cassandra, standing by the holy bay-tree, cried out, Slay him, for he will bring most grievous bane on Priam’s town.

      Cassandra directly prophesies that her marriage will prove Agamemnon's ruin, avenging her father and brothers and destroying the house of Atreus.

      I will not tell of that axe which shall sever my neck and the necks of others, or of the conflict ending in a mother’s death, which my marriage shall cause, nor of the overthrow of Atreus’ house.
