Answer:

c) Worried Teiresias’ prophecies might be true, he is relieved to find out they apply to someone else.

Explanation:

In "Oedipus King" Teiresias takes on the role of a prophet who reveals to Oedipus the truth about his birth and who his parents are and what must happen between them. Although these professions are worrisome, Tiresias does not make it clear that they are about Oedipus and he believes that the professions are for someone else.

In addition, Teiresias claims that Oedipus is the winner of the sphinx and that he will assume the throne of Thebes.

Summary of "like what you seeing"
ElenaW [278]
A dramatic monologue is a long piece of writing or poetry that seeks to reveal the reader or character’s innermost thoughts and feelings. Dramatic monologues can be entire works on their own, such as Tennyson’s poem "Ulysses," or they can simply be passages within a longer work, such as the soliloquys in Shakespeare’s plays. The dramatic monologue as a form or literary device was popularized by English Romantic poets such as Percy B. Shelley and Robert Browning.
