It is Haemon who tries to reason with Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon dares to meet with King Creon over the upcoming execution of Princess Antigone. He makes an impressive but unsuccessful attempt to get his father to abandon his non-burial edict and to free Antigone. Princess Ismene, his first cousin and the sister of his bride-to-be, precedes him in a brief and likewise unsuccessful attempt to change Creon's mind.
