But a prophet, hath he vision more than mine?
Who hath seen? Who can answer? There be wise men and unwise.
I will wait, I will wait, for the proving of the sign.
But I list not nor hearken when they speak Oedipus ill.
We saw his face of yore, when the riddling singer passed ; And we knew him that he loved us, and we saw him great in skill.
Oh, my heart shall uphold him to the last !
28 VV.5I3-S3I OEDIPUS, KING OF THEBES Enter Creon.
Creon.
Good brother citizens, a frantic word I hear is spoken ...by our chosen Lord Oedipus against me, and here am come Indignant. If he dreams, 'mid all this doom That weighs upon us, he hath had from me Or deed or lightest thought of injury, . . .
'Fore God, I have no care to see the sun Longer with such a groaning name. Not one Wound is it, but a multitude, if now All Thebes must hold me guilty, — aye, and thou And all who loved me — of a deed so foul.
Leader.
If words were spoken, it was scarce the soul That spoke them : 'twas some sudden burst of wrath.
