traitor

Now the city has been saved, the two brothers who became enemies are dead, and King Creon has ordered that Eteocles, the good brother, will be buried with full honours, while Polynices, the good-for-nothing traitor, will be left without tomb or ceremony to be the prey of the crows and the jackals. 🔊

In drama, with its traitors, its sneering villains, its damsels in distress, its sudden discoveries, its acts of revenge, its gleams of hope, it would be horrible to die, it would just be an accident. Maybe you could have been saved, the young hero might have arrived in time with the cavalry. 🔊

He was a rebel and a traitor, you know that. 🔊
