Answer 1

In the play 'Antigone' by Sophocles, the prophet tells Creon to bury Antigone and Polynices and to rescind his proclamation.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the play 'Antigone' by Sophocles, the prophet tells Creon to bury Antigone and Polynices and to rescind his proclamation. This means that Creon should allow the proper burial of Antigone's brother and revoke his order forbidding the burial. By doing so, he would be fulfilling the religious and moral duty of honoring the dead and correcting his mistake.
