As if yours, indeed, were few, but on the mark.
Creon
They cannot be, not for one whose mind is such as yours.
Oedipus
Begone! I will say it for these men too. And do not besiege me with a jealous watch where I am destined to remain.
Creon
I call these men, and not you, to witness the tenor of your words to your friends. And if I ever catch you
Oedipus
And who could catch me against the will of these allies?
Creon
I promise you, soon you will be pained even without that.
Oedipus
Where is the deed which backs that threatening word?
Creon
One of your two daughters I have myself just seized and sent away. The other I will drag off immediately.
Oedipus
Oh, no!
Creon
You will soon find more to weep about.
Oedipus
You have my child?
