Oedipus King Of Thebes - Sophocles - Gece Kitaplığı

That, while in Thebes I bear the diadem,
No man shall greet, no man shall shelter them,
Nor give them water in their thirst, nor share
In sacrifice nor shrift nor dying prayer,
But thrust them from our doors, the thing they hide
Being this lands curse. Thus hath the God replied
This day to me from Delphi, and my sword
I draw thus for the dead and for Gods word.
