Oedipus: Guide these dark steps and seat me there secure.

Antigone: If time can teach, I need not to be told.

Oedipus: Say, prithee, if thou knowest, where we are.

Antigone: Athens I recognize, but not the spot.

Oedipus: That much we heard from every wayfarer.

Antigone: Shall I go on and ask about the place?

Oedipus: Yes, daughter, if it be inhabited.

Antigone: Sure there are habitations; but no need
To leave thee; yonder is a man hard by.
