"Nothing painful is there" is an example of a syntactic device in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the above mentioned phrase is an example of an anastrophe. The term anastrophe is applied to a situation in which the logical order of the parts of a sentence are changed, for effect, emphasis or rhythm. The above mentioned phrase is found in Theban Princess Antigone's opening lines to her sister Ismene.
