Creon
Antistro2)he 2. ACT III. Scene I. 513
O citizens ! with grief T hear your king
Hath blasted the fair fame of guiltless Creon !
And most unjustly brands me with a crime
My soul abhors : whilst desolation spreads
515
On every side, and universal ruin
Hangs o'er the land, if I in word or deed
Could join to swell the woes of hapless Thebes,
T were unworthy — nay, I would not wish —
To live another day : alas ! my friends.
Thus to be deemed a traitor to my country,
To you my fellow- citizens, to all
520
That hear me, 'tis infamy and shame ;
I cannot, will not bear it.
