To cut the head off, and then hack the limbs, If he love Caesar, all that he can do
Like wrath in death, and envy afterwards; Is to himself,—take thought and die for Caesar.

Whether Caesar will come forth today or no; Metellus.

Quite from the main opinion he held once Who rated him for speaking well of Pompey:
Of fantasy, of dreams, and ceremonies. I wonder none of you have thought of him.
It may be these apparent prodigies, Brutus.
The unaccustom’d terror of this night, Now, good Metellus, go along by him:
And the persuasion of his augurers He loves me well, and I have given him reason;
May hold him from the Capitol to-day. Send him but hither, and I’ll fashion him.
Decius. Cassius.
Never fear that: if he be so resolved, The morning comes upon ‘s. We’ll leave you, Brutus;—

Revenge yourselves alone on Cassius, When grief, and blood ill-temper’d, vexeth him?
For Cassius is a-weary of the world; Brutus.
Hated by one he loves; braved by his brother; When I spoke that, I was ill-temper’d too.
Check’d like a bondman; all his faults observed,
Set in a note-book, learn’d and conn’d by rote, Cassius.
To cast into my teeth. O, I could weep Do you confess so much? Give me your hand.
My spirit from mine eyes!—There is my dagger, Brutus.
And here my naked breast; within, a heart And my heart too.
Dearer than Plutus’ mine, richer than gold: Cassius.
If that thou be’st a Roman, take it forth; O Brutus,—
I, that denied thee gold, will give my heart:
Strike as thou didst at Caesar; for I know, Brutus.
When thou didst hate him worst, thou lovedst him better What’s the matter?
Than ever thou lovedst Cassius. Cassius.
Brutus. —Have not you love enough to bear with me,
Sheathe your dagger: When that rash humor which my mother gave me
Be angry when you will, it shall have scope; Makes me forgetful?
Do what you will, dishonor shall be humour. Brutus.
O Cassius, you are yoked with a lamb Yes, Cassius; and from henceforth,
That carries anger as the flint bears fire; When you are over-earnest with your Brutus,
Who, much enforced, shows a hasty spark, He’ll think your mother chides, and leave you so.

And tell me what thou notest about the field.— Thou shouldst attempt it. Come now, keep thine oath;
[Pindarus goes up.] Now be a freeman; and with this good sword,
That ran through Caesar’s bowels, search this bosom.
This day I breathed first: time is come round,
Stand not to answer: here, take thou the hilts;
And where I did begin, there shall I end;
And when my face is cover’d, as ’tis now,
My life is run his compass.—Sirrah, what news?
Guide thou the sword.—Caesar, thou art revenged,
Pindarus. Even with the sword that kill’d thee.
[Above.] O my lord!

Cassius.
Pindarus.
What news?
So, I am free, yet would not so have been,
Pindarus. Durst I have done my will.—O Cassius!
[Above.] Titinius is enclosed round about Far from this country Pindarus shall run,
With horsemen, that make to him on the spur: Where never Roman shall take note of him.
Yet he spurs on. Now they are almost on him.— [Exit.]
Now, Titinius!—Now some ‘light. O, he ‘lights too:
He’s ta’en; [Shout.] and, hark! they shout for joy.
[Re-enter Titinius with Messala.]
Cassius.
Messala.
Come down; behold no more.—
It is but change, Titinius; for Octavius
O, coward that I am, to live so long,
Is overthrown by noble Brutus’ power,
To see my best friend ta’en before my face!
As Cassius’ legions are by Antony.
[Pindarus descends.]
Titinius.
Come hither, sirrah:
These tidings would well comfort Cassius.
In Parthia did I take thee prisoner;

With Pindarus his bondman, on this hill. Messala.

Clouds, dews, and dangers come; our deeds are done!

Alas, thou hast misconstrued every thing!
Messala. But, hold thee, take this garland on thy brow;
Mistrust of good success hath done this deed. Thy Brutus bid me give it thee, and I

Dardanius.
Brutus. O Clitus!
Come, poor remains of friends, rest on this rock.
Clitus.
Clitus. What ill request did Brutus make to thee?
Statilius show’d the torch-light; but, my lord,
He came not back: he is or ta’en or slain. Dardanius.
To kill him, Clitus. Look, he meditates.
Brutus.
Sit thee down, Clitus: slaying is the word; Clitus.
It is a deed in fashion. Hark thee, Clitus. Now is that noble vessel full of grief,
