,
, ,
x ,
I slew | the cow|ard, and | did take it | from
him.
TITINIUS

O Cas|sius, Brut|us gave | the word | too
ear||ly,
, ,
, , , 2
Who | having | some^advant|age on | Octav|ius,
<- , ,

, ,
Took || it too | eagerly:| his sol|diers fell |
to spoil,

Whilst^we | by Ant|ony | are all | enclosed.

Titi|nius, if | thou lovst || me,

,
Mount | thou my horse,| and hide | thy spurs | in
him,
, ,
, , ,
Till he | have brought | thee up | to yond|er
troops
,
, ,
, ,
And here | again,| that I | may rest | assured

Whether | yond^troops,| are friend | or en|emy.

I will | be here | again,| even | with a thought.

This day | I breath|ed first,| time is come round,

With horse|men, that / make to | him on | the
spur,

Yet he | spurs^on.| Now they are | almost | on

Now Ti|tini|us. Now | some light:| O he ||
lights^too.

,
He's tane.| And hark,| they shout | for joy.
CASSIUS
,

Come^down, | behold | no more: \\
, , ,
, ,
O cow|ard that | I am,| to live | so long,
,
, T T . T ,
To see | my best | friend tane before | my
face.
[PINDARUS descends]
, , ,
, , ,
, ,
Come hither sirrah: In parthia did I take thee prisoner, ????
,
, , ,
,
And then | I swore | thee, sav|ing of | thy life,
, ,
, ,
,
That what|soev|er I | did bid | thee do,
,
, , ,
,
Thou shouldst | attempt | it. Come | now, keep |
thine^oath,

Now be | a free|man, and with // this good sword,

That ran | through Cae|sar's bow|els, search |
this bos||om.

Stand | not to ans|wer: here,| take thou the

And when | my face | is cov|ered, as |'tis now,

Guide thou the sword.
[PINDARUS stabs him]
, ,
,
Caesar,| thou art | revenged,
, ,
, ,

Even | with the | sword that | killed thee.|
[Dies]
PINDARUS
, ,
So, I | am free,
, ,
,
Yet would | not so | have been,
, ,
, , ,
Durst^I | have done | my will.| O Cas|sius,
,
, , ,
,
Far from | this count|ry Pin|darus | shall run,
, , , ,
,
Where nev|er Rom|an shall / take note | of him.
[Exit. Enter TITINIUS with MESSALA]
MESSALA

It is but | change, Ti|tinius:| for Oc|tavius
, ,
, , x
Is ov|erthrown | by nob|le Brut|us' power,
, ,
, , ,
As Cas|sius' leg|ions are | by Ant|ony.
TITINIUS
, , , ,
,
These^tid|ings will / well com|fort Cas|sius.
MESSALA
,
,
Where did | you leave | him.
TITINIUS
, ,
,
All | discons|olate,
,
, ,
, ,
With Pin|darus | his bond|man, on | this hill.
MESSALA
. T T T ,
, ,
Is not that he | that lies | upon | the ground?
TITINIUS
, T T .
T ,
,
He lies | not like the liv|ing. O | my heart!
MESSALA
, ,
Is not | that^he?
TITINIUS
, ,
2 ,
No, this | was he Mes|sala,
,
, ,
, ,
But Cas|sius is | no more.| O set|ting sun:
, , ,
, ,
As in | thy red | rays thou | dost^sink |
tonight;
, 2 T T
T ,
,
So in his | red blood Cas|sius' day | is set.
,
, ,
, ,
The sun | of Rome | is set.| Our day | is gone,
T
T . T ,
, ,
Clouds, dews, and dang|ers come;| our deeds | are
done:
, ,
, , ,
Mistrust | of my | success | hath done | this
deed.
MESSALA
, ,
, , ,
Mistrust | of good | success | hath done | this deed.
,
, , ,
,
O hate|ful er|ror, mel|anchol|y's child:
, ,
, ,
,
Why dost | thou show | to the / apt thoughts | of
men
, 2
, , , ,
The things | that are not?| O er|ror, soon |
conceived,
, ,
, , ,
Thou nev|er comst | unto | a hap|py birth,
, ,
, ,
,
But killst | the moth|er that | engend|ered thee.
TITINIUS
,
, , ,
,
What Pin|darus?| Where^art | thou Pin|darus?
MESSALA
,
, 2 ,
, ,
Seek him | Titin|ius, whilst | I go | to meet
, , , , ,
The nob|le Brut|us, thrust|ing this | report
, ,
, ,
,
Into | his ears;| I may | say thrust|ing it:
,
, , ,
For pier|cing steel,| and darts | enven|omed,
<- , ,
, ,
, ,
Shall || be as | welcome | to the |
ears of | Brutus,
, ,
,
As tid|ings of / this sight.
TITINIUS
, 2 ,
Hie you Mes|sala,
, ,
2 , 2 , oo
And I | will seek | for Pindar|us the while:|
, ,
T T T
,
Why didst | thou send | me forth brave | Cassius?
,
, , ,
,
Did^I | not meet | thy friends,| And did | not^they
,
, ,
, ,
Put on | my brows | this wreath | of vic|tory,
,
x , 2
, ,
And bid | me give it | thee? Didst | thou not
hear | their shouts?
, 2
, , ,
,
Alas,| thou hast mis|construed | eve|rything.
, ,
, , ,
But hold | thee, take | this garl|and on |
thy brow,
, ,
, ,
,
Thy Brut|us bid | me give | it thee,| and I
,
, ,
, ,
Will do | his bid|ding. Brut|us, come | apace,
, ,
, , ,
->
And see | how I | regard|ed Cai|us Cas||sius:
, ,
, 2 ,
,
By | your leave | gods: this | is a Rom|an's
part,
, ,
, , 2
,
Come Cas|sius' sword,| and find | Titin|ius' heart.
[Kills himself. Alarum. Enter MESSALA, with BRUTUS, CATO, STRATO,
VOLUMNIUS, and LUCILIUS]
BRUTUS

T . T T

Where, where Messa|la, doth | his bo|dy lie?
MESSALA
, ,
, 2 ,

Lo^yond|er, and | Titin|ius mourn|ing it.
BRUTUS

, ,
Titin|ius' face | is up|ward.
CATO

He | is slain.
BRUTUS
, 2 ,
, , ,
O Jul|ius Cae|sar, thou | art migh|ty yet,
,
, ,
, ,
Thy spir|it walks | abroad,| and turns | our
swords
2 ,

In our own | proper | entrails.
[Low alarums]
CATO

Brave Ti|tinius,
,
, T
T T
,
Look where*| he have | not crowned dead |
Cassius.
BRUTUS
, ,
, ,
,
Are yet | two Rom|ans liv|ing such | as these?
,
, ,
, ,
The last | of all | the Rom|ans, fare | thee
well:
, , ,
, ,
It is | impos|sible | that ev|er Rome
,
, , . T T T
Should breed | thy fel|low. Friends | I owe more
tears
, ,
, ,
,
To this / dead man,| than you | shall see | me
pay.
, ,
, , ,
I shall / find time,| Cassius:| I shall | find^time.
, ,
2 , ,
,
Come there/fore*, and to | Thasos | send his |
body,
, , ,
, ,
His fun|erals | shall not | be in | our camp,
,
, ,
, 2 ,
Lest it | discom|fort us.| Lucil|ius come,
, ,
, ,
,
And come | young^Ca|to, let | us to | the field,

,
Labe|o and Flav|ius set | our bat|tles on:

'Tis three | o'clock,| and Rom|ans yet | ere
night,

We shall | try* for|tune in | a sec|ond fight.
