Answer: this metaphor could mean 2 things depending on what this text is about: (#1) this could refer to the characters inner thoughts that they are brave like a lion and that they did the right thing and then by calling them a rat it could suggest that they instead did the wrong thing
(#2) The character wants to think of themselves highly, and they compare themselves to a lion to convey this because lions are considered brave, strong, and powerful. Then the metaphor of comparing the character to a rat is used to show the reader the reality. This character doesn’t have the good qualities that they believe they have and so they are compared to a rat because rats are the prey of lions and possess opposite characteristics.

"once the anger of heaven has struck, that house is shaken".
Explanation:
In Strophe 1, Chorus remarks "once the anger of heaven has struck, that house is shaken" to portray a family being punished by the gods. By these line, he means that once gods' vengeance befall upon a family, the whole family will be crushed and destroyed.
This metaphor relates to the fact that Creon, who thought that he was all powerful to condemn anyone to death, was in fact not at par with the gods because he pays the price of his actions with the lives of his son and wife. It establishes the fact that humans do not determine the fate of themselves or any other person.
