Answer:

The play does not agree with Creon

Explanation:

In Oedipus Rex, Creon takes over Thebes as king. The city-state is mired with terrible plague due to Oedipus' murdering his father and marrying his own mother. Amidst power struggle between two sons of Oedipus and their killing, Creon inherits a disastrous state and wants to restore peace and normalcy. In <em>Antigone</em>, he issues a decree against the proper burial of Polynices, the son of Oedipus which Antigone, the daughter opposes. Tiresias' prophecy, Antigone's dissent and Haemon's advice failed to move Creon to change his decision.

The play sends the message that if a king is so adamant in putting his rule into action above a moral standpoint and laws of the gods he is doomed to bring corruption and disaster. Creon reject Antigone;s appeal for she says 'her crime is holy'; he rejects god's will as well. Hence, Creon blames himself for the deaths of his wife, son and Antigone.

How does Longfellow incorporate elements of the story of Sampson in "The Warning"?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Lonfellow slowly incorporates details of Samson's story, so that the reader can guess who the main character of the poem is. Only at the end does Samson's name appear, revealing the real identity of the slave.

Firstly, Longfellow calls the man the "Israelite of old". This is the first reference to Samson, who was the last of the judges of the ancient Israelites mentioned in the Book of Judges in the Hebrew Bible. Then, immediately, he writes "who tore the lion in his path". This was one of Samson's heroic actions for which he was known.

Later he refers to him as being "poor and blind". In his story, Samson's lover, Delilah, betrayed him by sending a Philistine enemy to cut his hair. This man also gauged Samson's eyes, leaving him blind. After this, Samson was "led forth to be  apander to Philistine revelry" since he was taken prisoner and taken to Philistine.

Then Longfellow explains that this man destroyed the place where he was being held. It is said that Samsom prayed to God and recovered his strenght, with which he could tear down the collums of his prison, killing himself and everybody else.
