Oedipus: Depart! I bid thee in these burghers' name,
And prowl no longer round me to blockade
My destined harbor.

Creon: I protest to these,
Not thee, and for thine answer to thy kin,
If e'er I take thee--

Oedipus: Who against their will
Could take me?

Creon: Though untaken thou shalt smart.

Oedipus: What power hast thou to execute this threat?

Creon: One of thy daughters is already seized,
The other I will carry off anon.
