Which of the following lines from Antigone shows a result of Creon’s change in fortune, or his peripeteia?SECOND MESSENGER:

Thy [Creon’s] wife, the mother of thy dead son here,

Lies stricken by a fresh inflicted blow.

CHORUS:

I have no comfort. What he saith,

Portends no other thing than death.

CREON:

Therefore, my guards who let her [Antigone] stay

Shall smart full sore for their delay.

CREON:

What, would you [the Chorus] have us at our age be schooled,

Lessoned in prudence by a beardless boy [Haemon]?

I would say that the lines from Antigone that show a result of Creon's change in fortune, or his peripeteia are:
Second messenger: Thy [Creon's] wife, the mother of thy dead son here,
Lies stricken by a fresh inflicted wound.
As a result of his change in fortune, both his wife and son are dead.
