Re: Quote by Greek Poet, Aeschylus~?

I am looking for the verbatim words to a quote by Aeschylus...I have the quote, however, do not know if the words are accurate. It reads: "Even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget, falls drop by drop upon the heart; and, in our despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us through the awful grace of God." Thanks.
 
And even in our sleep,
pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart,
and in our own despite,
against our will,
comes wisdom to us
by the awful grace of God.
