antigone

Read the excerpt below from Antigone by Sophocles and complete the instruction that follows.

CREON:
I’ll take her on a path no people use,
and hide her in a cavern in the rocks,
while still alive. I’ll set out provisions,
as much as piety requires, to make sure
the city is not totally corrupted.
