Sophocles, Antigone, 750-759


nanYou can never marry her, not while she is still alive.


nanHAEMON: Then she must die, and in death destroy another. CREON: How! doth thy boldness run to open threats? HAEMON: What threat is it, to combat vain resolves? CREON: Thou shalt rue thy witless teaching of wisdom. HAEMON: Wert thou not my father, I would have called thee unwise. CREON: Thou woman's slave, use not wheedling speech with me. HAEMON: Thou wouldest speak, and then hear no reply? CREON: Sayest thou so? Now, by the heaven above us-be sure of it-thou shalt smart for taunting me in this opprobrious strain. Bring forth that hated thing, that she may die forthwith in his presence-before his eyes-at her bridegroom's side! HAEMON: No, not at my side-never think it-shall she perish; nor shalt thou ever set eyes more upon my face:-rave, then, with such friends as can endure thee. (Exit HAEMON)


nanThen she will die, and in death destroy another.


nanWhat! Does your audacity run to open threats?


nanHow is it a threat to speak against empty plans?


nanYou will regret your unwise instructions in wisdom.


nanIf you were not my father, I would have called you insane.


nanYou woman’s slave, do not try to cajole me.


nanDo you want to have your say and then have done without a reply?


nanIs that so? By Olympus above—know this well—you will have no joy for taunting me over and above your censures.
