No, justice will not permit you to do this, since you were not willing to help with the deed, nor did I give you a part in it.IsmeneBut now with this sea of troubles around you, I am not ashamed to sail in a sea of suffering at your side.AntigoneAs to whose deed it is, Hades and the dead are witnesses. A friend in words is not the type of friend I love.IsmeneNo, sister, do not strip me of death’s honor, but let me die with you and make due consecration to the dead.AntigoneDo not share my death. Do not claim deeds to which you did not put your hand. My death will suffice.IsmeneAnd how can I cherish life, once I am deprived of you?
