Sophocles, Oedipus Tyrannus (ed. Sir Richard Jebb), line 1223 (search)
A second messenger enters from the house.
Second Messenger
You who are most honored in this land, what deeds you will hear, what deeds you will behold, what burden of sorrow will be yours,if, true to your race, you still care for the house of Labdacus.

Second Messenger

Chorus
