The ancient greeks believed that fate played an important role in guiding and shaping human lives. which lines in this excerpt from antigone highlight the role of fate in the lives of antigone and ismene? antigone: ismene, sister of my blood and heart, see'st thou how zeus would in our lives fulfill the weird of oedipus, a world of woes! for what of pain, affliction, outrage, shame, is lacking in our fortunes, thine and mine? ismene: to me, antigone, no word of friends has come, or glad or grievous, since we twain were reft of our two brethren in one day by double fratricide; and since i' the night our argive leaguers fled, no later news has reached me, to inspirit or deject. antigone: i know 'twas so, and therefore summoned thee beyond the gates to breathe it in thine ear. ismene: what is it? some dark secret stirs thy breast. antigone: what but the thought of our two brothers dead, the one by creon graced with funeral rites, the other disappointed? eteocles he hath consigned to earth (as fame reports) with obsequies that use and wont ordain, so gracing him among the dead below…. such is the edict (if 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 edict says whoe'er transgresses shall be stoned to death.
