Help in ending the pestilence and in finding the guilty in Laius' death are the pleas in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the priest of Zeus and the Theban suppliants ask for help in ending the pestilence in Thebes. Theban King Oedipus hears how to end the pestilence. He therefore issues a plea for help in tracking down the guilty in King Laius' murder.
