  CREON

    No more�察�indeed�察�having that�察�I have all。

  ANTIGONE

    Why then dost thou delay�拭�In thy discourse there is nought that

pleases me�察�never may there be� �and so my words must needs be

unpleasing to thee。 And yet�察�for glory´whence could I have won a

nobler�察�than by giving burial to mine own brother�拭�All here would

own that they thought it well�察�were not their lips sealed by fear。 But

royalty�察�blest in so much besides�察�hath the power to do and say what

it will。

  CREON

    Thou differest from all these Thebans in that view。

  ANTIGONE

    These also share it�察�but they curb their tongues for thee。

  CREON

    And art thou not ashamed to act apart from them��

  ANTIGONE

    No�察�there is nothing shameful in piety to a brother。

  CREON

    Was it not a brother�察�too�察�that died in the opposite cause��

  ANTIGONE

    Brother by the same mother and the same sire。

  CREON

    Why�察�then�察�dost thou render a grace that is impious in his sight��

  ANTIGONE

    The dead man will not say that he so deems it。

  CREON

    Yea�察�if thou makest him but equal in honour with the wicked。

  ANTIGONE

    It was his brother�察�not his slave�察�that perished。

  CREON

    Wasting this land�察�while he fell as its champion。

  ANTIGONE

    Nevertheless�察�Hades desires these rites。

  CREON

    But the good desires not a like portion with the evil。

  ANTIGONE

    Who knows but this seems blameless in the world below��

  CREON

    A foe is never a friend´not even in death。

  ANTIGONE

    Tis not my nature to join in hating�察�but in loving。

  CREON

    Pass�察�then�察�to the world of the dead�察�and�察�it thou must needs

love�察�love them。 While I live�察�no woman shall rule me。



             ��Enter ISMENE from the house�察�led in by two attendants。��



  CHORUS ��chanting��

    Lo�察�yonder Ismene comes forth�察�shedding such tears as fond sisters

weep�察�a cloud upon her brow casts its shadow over her

darkly´flushing face�察�and breaks in rain on her fair cheek。

  CREON

    And thou�察�who�察�lurking like a viper in my house�察�wast secretly

draining my life´blood�察�while I knew not that I was nurturing two

pests�察�to rise against my throne´come�察�tell me now�察�wilt thou also

confess thy part in this burial�察�or wilt thou forswear all knowledge

of it��

  ISMENE

    I have done the deed�察�if she allows my claim�察�and share the burden

of the charge。

  ANTIGONE

    Nay�察�justice will not suffer thee to do that�此�thou didst not

consent to the deed�察�nor did I give thee part in it。

 ISMENE

    But�察�now that ills beset thee�察�I am not ashamed to sail the sea of

trouble at thy side。

  ANTIGONE

    Whose was the deed�察�Hades and the dead are witnesses�此�a friend

in words is not the friend that I love。

  ISMENE

    Nay�察�sister�察�reject me not�察�but let me die with thee�察�and duly

honour the dead。

  ANTIGONE

    Share not thou my death�察�nor claim deeds to which thou hast not

put thy hand�此�my death will suffice。

  ISMENE

    And what life is dear to me�察�bereft of thee��

  ANTIGONE

    Ask Creon�察�all thy care is for him。

  ISMENE

    Why vex me thus�察�when it avails thee nought��

  ANTIGONE

    Indeed�察�if I mock�察�'tis with pain that I mock thee。

  ISMENE

    Tell me�察�how can I serve thee�察�even now��

  ANTIGONE

    Save thyself�此�I grudge not thy escape。

  ISMENE

    Ah�察�woe is me� �And shall I have no share in thy fate��

  ANTIGONE

    Thy choice was to live�察�mine�察�to die。

  ISMENE

    At least thy choice was not made without my protest。

  ANTIGONE

    One world approved thy wisdom�察�another�察�mine。

  ISMENE

    Howbeit�察�the offence is the same for both of us。

  ANTIGONE

    Be of good cheer�察�thou livest�察�but my life hath long been given to

death�察�that so I might serve the dead。

  CREON

    Lo�察�one of these maidens hath newly shown herself foolish�察�as

the other hath been since her life began。

  ISMENE

    Yea�察�O king�察�such reason as nature may have given abides not

with the unfortunate�察�but goes astray。

  CREON

    Thine did�察�when thou chosest vile deeds with the vile。

  ISMENE

    What life could I endure�察�without her presence��

  CREON

    Nay�察�speak not of her 'presence'�察�she lives no more。

  ISMENE

    But wilt thou slay the betrothed of thine own son��

  CREON

    Nay�察�there are other fields for him to plough。

  ISMENE

    But there can never be such love as bound him to her。

  CREON

    I like not an evil wife for my son。

  ANTIGONE

    Haemon�察�beloved� �How thy father wrongs thee��

  CREON

    Enough�察�enough of thee and of thy marriage��

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS

    Wilt thou indeed rob thy son of this maiden��

  CREON

    'Tis Death that shall stay these bridals for me。

  LEADER

    'Tis determined�察�it seems�察�that she shall die。

  CREON

    Determined�察�yes�察�for thee and for me。´��To the two attendants�� No

more delay´servants�察�take them within� �Henceforth they must be

women�察�and not range at large�察�for verily even the bold seek to fly��

when they see Death now closing on their life。



   ��Exeunt attendants�察�guarding ANTIGONE and ISMENE。´CREON remains。��



  CHORUS ��singing��



                                                            strophe 1



    Blest are they whose days have not tasted of evil。 For when a

house hath once been shaken from heaven�察�there the curse fails

nevermore�察�passing from life to life of the race�察�even as�察�when the

surge is driven over the darkness of the deep by the fierce breath

of Thracian sea´winds�察�it rolls up the black sand from the depths�察�and

there is sullen roar from wind´vexed headlands that front the blows of

the storm。



                                                        antistrophe 1



    I see that from olden time the sorrows in the house of the

Labdacidae are heaped upon the sorrows of the dead�察�and generation

is not freed by generation�察�but some god strikes them down�察�and the

race hath no deliverance。

    For now that hope of which the light had been spread above the

last root of the house of Oedipus´that hope�察�in turn�察�is brought

lowby the blood´stained dust due to the gods infernal�察�and by

folly in speech�察�and frenzy at the heart。

                                                            strophe 2



    Thy power�察�O Zeus�察�what human trespass can limit�拭�That power which

neither Sleep�察�the all´ensnaring�察�nor the untiring months of the

gods can master�察�but thou�察�a ruler to whom time brings not old age��

dwellest in the dazzling splendour of Olympus。

    And through the future�察�near and far�察�as through the past�察�shall

this law hold good�此�Nothing that is vast enters into the life of

mortals without a curse。



                                                        antistrophe 2



    For that hope whose wanderings are so wide is to many men a

comfort�察�but to many a false lure of giddy desires�察�and the

disappointment comes on one who knoweth nought till he burn his foot

against the hot fire。

    For with wisdom hath some one given forth the famous saying��

that evil seems good�察�soon or late�察�to him whose mind the god draws to

mischief�察�and but for the briefest space doth he fare free of woe。

  LEADER OF THE CHORUS

    But lo�察�Haemon�察�the last of thy sons�察�Comes he grieving for the

doom of his promised bride�察�Antigone�察�and bitter for the baffled

hope of his marriage��

                                                       ��Enter HAEMON��

  CREON

    We shall know soon�察�better than seers could tell us。´My son��

hearing the fixed doom of thy betrothed�察�art thou come in rage against

thy father�拭�Or have I thy good will�察�act how I may��

  HAEMON

    Father�察�I am thine�察�and thou�察�in thy wisdom�察�tracest for me

rules which I shall follow。 No marriage shall be deemed by me a

greater gain than thy good guidance。

  CREON

    Yea�察�this�察�my son�察�should be thy heart's fixed law�察�in all

things to obey thy father's will。 'Tis for this that men pray to see

dutiful children grow up around them in their homes�察�that such may

requite their father's foe with evil�察�and honour�察�as their father

doth�察�his friend。 But he who begets unprofitable children´what shall

we say that he hath sown�察�but troubles for himself�察�and much triumph

for his foes�拭�Then do not thou�察�my son�察�at pleasure's beck�察�dethrone

thy reason for a woman's sake�察�knowing that this is a joy that soon

grows cold in clasping arms�察�an evil woman to share thy bed and thy

home。 For what wound could strike deeper than a false friend�拭�Nay��

with loathing�察�and as if she were thine enemy�察�let this girl go to

find a husband in the house of Hades。 For since I have taken her��

alone of all the city�察�in open disobedience�察�I will not make myself

a liar to my people´I will slay her。

    So let her appeal as she will to the majesty of kindred blood。

If I am to nurture mine own kindred in naughtiness�察�needs must I

bear with it in aliens。 He who does his duty in his own househo
