William Butler Yeats’s poem “From the ‘Antigone’” parallels Sophocles’s <em>Antigone </em>because (a.) the speaker in the poem, as well as the chorus in the play, laments noble Antigone’s terrible fate.

<u>In Sophocles's </u><u><em>Antigone,</em></u><em> </em>Antigone commits suicide after Creon condemns her to death for burying Polynices and not obeying the king's orders. Therefore, it is her loyalty towards her brother what leads her to that terrible fate. <u>After she dies, the chorus laments her fate and the curse on Oedipus's family</u>. Moreover, <u>in Yeats's poem "From the 'Antigone'"</u>,<u> the speaker also laments Antigone's death, especially when he says "And yet I weep -- Oedipus' child Descends into the loveless dust"</u>.
