I would say that the lines are:
"<span>By Zeus I swear, except ye find and bring
Before my presence here the very man
Who carried out this lawless burial,
Death for your punishment shall not suffice.

Hanged on a cross, alive ye first shall make
Confession of this outrage. This will teach you
What practices are like to serve your turn."

Creon not only forbids </span><span>Polyneices's burial, but reinforces this law (as well as his own legal authority) by taking a vow to severely punish anyone who has dared to break his law. Furthermore, he backs his position up with Zeus, to whom he vows. </span>

Yea, as I still revere the dread of Zeus,

By Zeus I swear, except ye find and bring

Before my presence here the very man

Who carried out this lawless burial,

Death for your punishment shall not suffice.

How do the events in this poem connect to the first poem we read, “1975: Year of the Cat,” and the title of the novel, Inside Ou
Serga [27]

Answer: The poem “1975: Year of the Cat”, is about a ten-year-old girl who has only known her hometown and is encouraged by her family to have hope in life, but restricted to stay home. The title of the novel "Inside Out & Back Again" suggests a desire to get out of a place, but being put back for some reason, having then a similar plot to the first poem.

Explanation: We can encounter several similarities with both stories. The poem “1975: Year of the Cat,” tells the story of a little girl being trapped in her house by the family and society rules. However, she is encouraged by her mother to have hope in life. On the other hand, the novel "Inside Out & Back Again" tells the story of a girl the same age, who is also very united to her family, but somehow forced to stay inside due to the horrible place they moved to. Although the plot is not told in the title of the novel, the reader can infer that a back and forth situation occurs.
