Read "break, break, break" by tennyson and answer the questions below.

break, break, break,
on thy cold gray stones, o sea!
and i would that my tongue could utter
the thoughts that arise in me.

o well for the fisherman's boy, 5
that he shouts with his sister at play!
o well for the sailor lad,
that he sings in his boat on the bay!

and the stately ships go on
to their haven under the hill; 10
but o for the touch of a vanished hand,
and the sound of a voice that is still!

break, break, break,
at the foot of thy crags, o sea!
but the tender grace of a day that is dead 15
will never come back to me.

allusion

What is the significance of the above statement in relation to the play’s conclusion? oedipus treats his inferiors poorly but ultimately grants them the same respect he grants to nobility. while teiresias appears to be mocking oedipus, the real message is one of warning about the forces working against the king. oedipus earns great fame for answering the riddle of the sphinx but ultimately loses his crown to a common man. just as oedipus is unable to conceive that he has done wrong in the past, he is unable to imagine that his enviable position is impermanent.
