HAEMON.

Never before my eyes, believe it not;
A witness of her death I will not be,
Nor shalt thou look upon my face again.
Rave at the friends who will thy raving brook.

(Exit HAEMON.)

CHORUS.

O Prince, the youth has rushed away in wrath,
And at his years anguish is violent.

CREON.

Let him go vent his overweening pride;
These maidens twain shall not escape from death.

CHORUS.

What? Is it thy resolve that both shall die?

CREON.
