Select the correct text in the passage.
in antigone. creon places greater importance on enforcing human civil law than honoring the gods. which lines in this excerpt from the play
reflect the overemphasis he places on civil law?
creon:
ocease, you vex me with your babblement:
i am like to think you dote in your old age.
is it not arrant folly to pretend
that gods would have a thought for this dead man?
of evils current upon earth
the worst is money. money 'tis that sacks
cities, and drives men forth from hearth and home,
warps and seduces native innocence,
and breeds a habit of dishonesty.
yea, as i still revere the dread of zeus,
by zeus i swear, except ye find and bring
before my presence here the very man
who carried out this lawless burial,
death for your punishment shall not suffice.
hanged on a cross, alive ye first shall make
confession of this outrage. this will teach you
what practices are like to serve your turn.
there are some villainies that bring no gain.
