Medea
by Lucius Annaeus Seneca (aka Seneca the Younger)
translation by Frank Justus Miller
The free translation I used is on Project Gutenberg:
gutenberg.org/ebooks/57999
THE HOT QUOTE FROM THE BRITISH LIBRARY:
(bl.uk/collection-items/seneca-his-ten-tragedies-1581)
"The centrality of Seneca to English tragedy of the period is felt when Polonius singles out the Roman playwright in his description of the travelling players: ‘Seneca cannot be too heavy’ (Hamlet, 2.2.400)."
