In typical Greek dramas, the prologue is the opening scene that provides background information about the play and sets up its conflict. Which two excerpts from Antigone successfully achieve that goal?
ISMENE
To me. Antigone, no word of friends
Has come or plador prievous. Since we twain
Were reft of our two brethren in one day
By double fratricide and since the night
Our Argve leaguers fled, no later news
Has reached me to inspirit or deject
ANTIGONE
Such is the edict of report speak true)
of Creon, our most noble Creon, aimed
At thee and me. aye me too, and anon
He will be here to promulgate, for such
As have not heard his mandate: Tis in sooth
No passing humor, for the edit says
Whoe'er transgresses shall be stoned to death
ISMENE
in defiance of the low we cross
A monarch's wil weak women, think of that
Not framed by nature to contend with men
Remember this too that the stronger rules
We must obey his orders, these or worse
Therefore I plead compulsion and entreat
The dead to pardon
ANTIGONE
Sister forbear, or I shall hate thee soon,
And the dead man will hate thee too, with cause
Saylam mad and pve my madness rein
To wreck itselt the worst that can befall
is but to die an honorable death
