Oedipus: Woe, woe!

Creon: This is but prelude to thy woes.

Oedipus: Hast thou my child?

Creon: And soon shall have the other.

Oedipus: Ho, friends! ye will not surely play me false?
Chase this ungodly villain from your land.

Chorus: Hence, stranger, hence avaunt! Thou doest wrong
In this, and wrong in all that thou hast done.

Creon (to his guards)
'Tis time by force to carry off the girl,
If she refuse of her free will to go.
