Which of these excerpts from antigone demonstrates creon’s hubris?

our storm-tossed ship of state, now safe in port.
but you by special summons i convened
as my most trusted councilors; first, because
i knew you loyal to laius of old;
again, when oedipus restored our state,
both while he ruled and when his rule was o'er,…

. .

creon:
if i perceive some mischievous design
to sap the state, i will not hold my tongue;
nor would i reckon as my private friend
a public foe, well knowing that the state
is the good ship that holds our fortunes all:
farewell to friendship, if she suffers wreck.

. .

creon:
i have proclaimed an edict as concerns
the sons of oedipus; eteocles
who in his country's battle fought and fell,
the foremost champion—duly bury him
with all observances and ceremonies.

. .

creon:
for polyneices 'tis ordained that none
shall give him burial or make mourn for him,
but leave his corpse unburied, to be meat
for dogs and carrion crows, a ghastly sight.
so am i purposed; never by my will.
