An allusion is an indirect reference to something. In 'Antigone', one example of an allusion is the phrase 'bewailing the loss of his bride'. The possessive adjective 'his' refers to Haemon. The noun 'bride' refers to Antigone, who is Haemon's cousin and bride-to-be. Another example is the phrase 'the Cadmean bride'. The adjective 'Cadmean' refers to the Cadmeia Palace on the Theban acropolis. The noun 'bride' refers to Semele, who is the daughter of Theban founder Cadmus and Harmonia, and the mother of the god Bacchus. Semele's home is the Cadmeia Palace.
Antigone's supposed marriage with Hades is an example of an allusion in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term allusion describes a reference of one concept to another that already is known to the audience. But it is not a vice versa situation. The description fits Antigone's procession to her death as her bridal procession. The death march is an allusion to Antigone's aborted bridal march, but the reverse cannot be true.
If Antigone disobeys Creon's Law in "Antigone," Antigone is to be sentenced to death.
