So Lies death embracing death!" In the midst of this description, by a fine stroke of art, Euridice, the mother of Haemon, abruptly and silently quits the stage . When next we hear of her, she has destroyed herself, with her last breath cursing her husband as the murderer of her child. The end of the play leaves Creon the surviver.
As in the Oedipus Tyrannus, Tiresias the soothsayer appears to announce all the terrors that ensue so now, at the crowning desolation of that fated house, he, the solemn and mysterious surviver of such dark tragedies, is again brought upon the stage.
He inquires what train accompanied Laius learns that there were five persons; that but one escaped; that on his return to Thebes, seeing Oedipus on the throne, the surviver had besought the favour to retire from the city. Oedipus orders this witness of the murder to be sent for, and then proceeds to relate his own history.
