Oedipus: Thou shalt rue it
Twice to repeat so gross a calumny.

Teiresias: Must I say more to aggravate thy rage?

Oedipus: Say all thou wilt; it will be but waste of breath.

Teiresias: I say thou livest with thy nearest kin
In infamy, unwitting in thy shame.

Oedipus: Think'st thou for aye unscathed to wag thy tongue?

Teiresias: Yea, if the might of truth can aught prevail.
Oedipus: With other men, but not with thee, for thou
In ear, wit, eye, in everything art blind.
