Thou daughter of divine Tyresia's, With those unspotted virgins hands of thine Receive the blood within this vessel here, And then devoutly it to Bacchus yield. Now in thy sacred name I bowel here This sacrifice. Fair and welformed all in every point, The liver clean, the heart is not inf to, Save lo, I find but only one heart string By which I find somewhat I woten re what, That seems corrupt, and were not only that, In all the rest, they are both sound and hold. I see the flames do sundry colours cast, Now bloody sanguine, straight way purple, blue, Some parts seem black, some grey, and some be green. In this mean while I will return with speed From whence I came, for lawful is it not, That such as I should hear your secretness. Oh famous Citizens, that hold full deer Your quiet country: Lo where I do come Most joyfully, with wonted sacrifice, So to beseech the supreme Citizens, To stay our state that staggringly do stand, And plant us peace where war and discord grows: Wherefore, with heart devout and humble cheer, While I break up the bowels of this beast, That oft thy vineyard Bacchus hath destroyed, Let every wight crave pardon for his faults, With bending knee about his altars here. This endue is done.
Plot summary
Plot — Jocasta
Oedipus unknowingly murdered his father and married his mother Jocasta; on learning the truth, he blinded himself. His sons imprisoned him and agreed to alternate annually as kings of Thebes: Polynices went into exile while Eteocles took the first turn on the throne; but Eteocles refused to give it up at the end of his year in office, and Polynices has besieged Thebes in association with the King of Argos. Jocasta intervenes as their mother, and persuades Polynices to enter Thebes and meet Eteocles under truce. Eteocles will not hand over power, but offers to accept his brother back as a private citizen. Jocasta is unable to reconcile her sons, and Polynices’ forces prepare for battle. Eteocles names Creon as his successor, and asks him to marry Antigone to his son Haemon. Creon consults Tiresias, and learns that Thebes is doomed to destruction in divine revenge for Jocasta’s incest; only the death of his other son, Menoeceus, can save the city. Keen to die for his country, Menoeceus refuses to go into exile as his father wishes, reports the prophecy to Eteocles, and kills himself. Meanwhile, the battle is indecisive, and Eteocles and Polynices agree to settle their dispute in single combat. Jocasta and Antigone are too late to stop them killing each other: arriving to find them both dying, Jocasta stabs herself with Polynices’ dagger. The besieging army is massacred by the Thebans. Antigone brings the three bodies back to Thebes and tells her father what has happened. Creon declares himself King of Thebes and gives order for the funerals of Jocasta and Eteocles, but demands that Polynices, as an enemy of the city, should remain unburied. Antigone protests, pleads, and refuses to marry Haemon, threatening to kill him and then herself should Creon try to force her. Creon banishes both her and Oedipus. She helps her blind father to touch the dead bodies, and he asks her to see that Polynices is buried.
