In Antigone, Haemon emerges as a defender of the citizens' cause in the face of his father's tyranny. Which lines in this excerp

t from the play
reflect Haemon's respect for the Theban citizens' opinions?
HAEMON
And, as thy son, it falls to me to mark
The acts, the words, the comments of the crowd.
The commons stand in terror of thy frown.
And dare not utter aught that might offend,
But I can overhear their muttered plaints,
know how the people mourn this maiden doomed
For noblest deeds to die the worst of deaths.
O father, nothing is by me more prized
Than thy well-being, for what higher good
Can children covet than their sire's fair fame.
As fathers too take pride in glorious sons?
For whoso thinks that wisdom dwells with him
That he alone can speak or think aright.
Such oracles are empty breath when tried.
See how the trees beside a stream in flood
Save, if they yield to force each spray unharmed.
But by resisting perish root and branch
The mariner who keeps his mainsheet taut
And will not slacken in the sale is like
To sail with thwarts reversed. Keel uppermost
Relent then and repent thee of thy wrath
For fone young in years may claim some sense,
I’ll say ‘tis best of all to be endowed
With absolute wisdom; but, if that’s denied, (and nature takes not readily that ply)
Next wise is he who lists to sage advice.
