Answer:
CREON: I am the guilty cause. I did the deed, Thy murderer. Yea, I guilty plead. My henchmen, lead me hence, away, away, A cipher, less than nothing; no delay!
Explanation:
In the play <em>Antigone</em>, we realize that Creon has been the guilty party throughout the whole play. Although he did not have bad intentions, he was a victim of <em>hubris</em>, or arrogance. He dared defy the laws of the gods by prohibiting the burial, and believing his human laws were superior. In these lines, Creon realizes his mistake, and confesses. He also accepts his punishment willingly.
