CASCA and the other conspirators stab CAESAR. BRUTUS stabs him last.

CAESAR

And you too, Brutus? In that case, die, Caesar.

(he dies)

	CINNA
	Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead!
	Run hence, proclaim, cry it about the streets.

CINNA

Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead! Run and proclaim it in the streets.

	CASSIUS
	Some to the common pulpits, and cry out,
90	“Liberty, freedom, and enfranchisement!”

CASSIUS

Some should go to the public platforms and cry out, “Liberty, freedom, and democracy!”

Confusion. Exeunt some plebians and senators

Confusion. Some citizens and senators exit.

	BRUTUS
	People and senators, be not affrighted.
	Fly not. Stand still. Ambition's debt is paid.

BRUTUS

People and senators, don't be afraid. Don't run away—stay where you are. Only Caesar had to die for his ambition.

	CASCA
	Go to the pulpit, Brutus.

CASCA

Go to the platform, Brutus.

	DECIUS
	And Cassius too.

DECIUS

And Cassius too.

	BRUTUS
95	Where's Publius?

BRUTUS

Where's Publius?

	CINNA
	Here, quite confounded with this mutiny.

CINNA

Here. He's completely stunned by this mutiny.

	METELLUS
	Stand fast together, lest some friend of Caesar's
	Should chance—

METELLUS

Stand close together, in case someone loyal to Caesar tries to—

	BRUTUS
	Talk not of standing.—Publius, good cheer.
100	There is no harm intended to your person,
	Nor to no Roman else. So tell them, Publius.

BRUTUS

Don't talk about standing together.—Publius, cheer up. We don't intend any harm to you, nor to anyone else. Tell them this, Publius.
