How dare Haemon lecture me? A son must always be loyal to his father yet when Haemon decided to pay me a visit, he merely questioned my leadership and principles and proceeded to call me unwise. Is he unable to understand that anarchy is our worst evil? ..and that any treacherous woman who dares disobey the law is a criminal and shall be looked down upon? He is a woman's slave for defending that criminal! He is too young and naive to understand that, instead, he should be thanking me. There are plenty other women, more loyal and obedient, for him to choose from. He deserves much more than that vile Antigone, and surely, her death will break off their marriage!
Antigone shall now be killed. While I have decided to spare Ismene's life, for she did no wrong, Antigone will be left in the tomb to die alone!

Understand this my father and my king: If Antigone will die, if Antigone must die, so will another be slain in her death.
