- Still the king, the master of all things?No more: here your power ends.
- O wife, I fear... I fear that I have said too much, and therefore I must see this man.
- Could we have him here, without delay?
- The only surviving witness is the shepherd.
- We could. Why do you ask?
- Jocasta proceeds to tell Oedipus about an oracle given to Laius. This states that Laius should die at the hands of his own child, but this is impossible since Jocasta and Laius put their child out to die. She claims that she doesn't believe anyone carries the power of divination, since the oracle was wrong.
- Jocasta says that there is no way the oracle is true because Laius was killed by outland robbers, at a place where three roads meet. Oedipus gets scared, because he killed a man where the three roads meet.
- Polybus is no kin of yours. You were given to him- by me, and another shepherd entrusted you to my care.

- Jocasta tells Oedipus that there was only one surviving witness from the scene of Laius' murder- a servant who begged to become a shepherd out in the country. Oedipus must speak to this man, he is distraught and scared that he is the one that killed Laius.
