Question

In Antigone, Creon has to pay for his hubris at the end of the play. Which lines from the play reflect Creon’s realization of the tragedy he has brought to Thebes? 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! SECOND MESSENGER: Sorrows are thine, my lord [Creon], and more to come, One lying at thy feet, another yet More grievous waits thee, when thou comest home. CREON: I go hot-foot. Bestir ye one and all, My henchmen! Get ye axes! Speed away To yonder eminence! I too will go, For all my resolution this way sways. SECOND MESSENGER: 'Tis true that thou wert charged by the dead Queen As author of both deaths, hers and her son's.
