After Creon forbids burial of Polyneices, Antigone argues that divine law requires it and performs the rites despite her sister's warning. Creon seals her in a tomb; after Tiresias warns him, Creon relents too late. Antigone, Haemon and Creon's wife die by suicide, leaving Creon isolated.
A verse reworking of the Philoctetes myth set near the end of the Trojan War. Abandoned on Lemnos because of a wound, the archer Philoctetes is approached by Odysseus and Neoptolemus, who need his bow to fulfil the prophecy that Troy cannot be taken without it.
