Nicola- sh!...shh! Dont shriek. Jacopo- how? Nicola- Julius Caesar, king of Bithynia wants a nightingale for his forthcoming anniversary. The one, who gets it to him, will be rewarded with a huge amount. It is a great opportunity to pay for our sisters treatment. Jacopo- right, brother! You are absolutely right. But why they want natives to search for it and not their skilled agents? Nicola- they have searched everywhere, but no result. And I have something in my mind too. Jacopo- I know. Its Bingle bog. There are a lot of creatures there. We would surely get the nightingale there. Nicola- so lets go there. Come.

Decius Brutus- yes, sir! Cassius Brutus- your job is mentioned here. Take this (he gives a note to him) Decius Brutus- (after reading the note) and what about my reward, sir? Cassius Brutus- after the work has been done; you will get your money. (Both Cassius and Decius leave. Unfortunately, the note drops out of Decius pocket) Jacopo- (after reading the note) oh!
