What does Antigone tell Ismene she plans to do in the opening scene of 'Antigone'?

That she is going to deliberately disobey a royal edict that carries a death sentence is what Antigone tells Ismene that she will do in the opening scene of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon issues an edict against the proper, Theban-style mourning and burying of the disloyal dead. With that edict, he justifies burying his loyal nephew Eteocles and not burying his disloyal nephew Polyneices. But Creon's niece, Theban Princess Antigone, plans to disobey the non-burial law and give her brother Polyneices the same respect in death as her brother Eteocles.
