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>

When he came home with the invitation to the ball, he thought his wife would be pleased. She was not. She did not feel she had anything suitable to wear to the ball and therefore was unable to go.
