θρῆνος der Antigone und Ismene. Antigone steht an der Leiche des Polynikes, Ismene an der des Eteokles. Der Gesang besteht aus vier Teilen; im ersten und dritten entspricht immer die Partie der Ismene der Partie der Antigone, im zweiten Teile besteht außer dieser Responsion noch die Responsion eines größeren Strophen- paares, das mit einem Ephymnion der beiden Schwestern schließt; im letzten Teile entsprechen sich zwei Verse, die wieder von Antigone und Ismene gemeinsam gesungen werden, und zwei Verse, von denen der eine der Antigone, der andere der Ismene gehört. Eine ähnliche Gestalt der Responsion findet sich nur noch Eur. Androm. 1197 ff.
