Creon: Most certainly thou must; how wilt thou escape his bed?

Antigone: Then if I must, our wedding-night will find another Danaid
bride in me.

Creon: (turning to Oedipus) Dost witness how boldly she reproached
me?

Antigone: Witness this steel, the sword by which I swear!

Creon: Why art so bent on being released from this marriage?

Antigone: I mean to share my hapless father's exile.

Creon: A noble spirit thine but somewhat touched with folly.

Antigone: Likewise will I share his death, I tell thee further.
