Sme students may extend this bservatin t include the idea that this marriage bed represents bth Jcasta s marriage t Oedipus and her marriage t Laius, in which she cnceived Oedipus. Cnsider the fllwing questin as an extensin: Given what yu knw abut Jcasta s past and the terrible prphecy, what might it mean fr Jcasta t have given birth twice ver (line 1491)?
