Cof L49 p. 75 hc "No hallowed skein...tryst with Trystero"

[Mark Kohut]

Isn't this couplet an echo of the original Oedipus play--
fate, fated and unavoidable?  
 
Tiresias (In Oedipus the King) 
"You [Oedipus] with your precious eyes, you're blind to the corruption of your life..."
 
(part of) T.S. Eliot's footnote on Tiresias in "The Waste Land"
"all the women are one woman, and the two sexes meet in Tiresias. 
What Tiresias sees, in fact, is the substance of the poem."
