Epeisodion 4
Antigone
I cannot face the crowd.
Jocasta
Coyness is not for you now.
Antigone
But what shall I do?
Jocasta
You will put an end to your brothers’ strife.
Jocasta
By falling at their knees with me.
Antigone
Lead on till we are between the armies; we must not delay.
Jocasta
Haste, my daughter, haste! For, if I can forestall the onset of my sons, I may yet live; but if they are dead, I will lie down in death with them. Exeunt Jocasta and Antigone.
