| Alarums Enter CASSIUS and
TITINIUS |
|
| Sounds of battle. CASSIUS and
TITINIUS enter. |
|
| | CASSIUS |
| |
O, look, Titinius, look, the villains fly! |
| |
Myself have to mine own turned enemy. |
| |
This ensign here of mine was turning back. |
| |
I slew the coward and did take it from him. |

|
|
| CASSIUS |
|
Oh, look, Titinius, look! Those villains, our soldiers, flee!
I've become an enemy to my own soldiers! This
standard-bearer here of mine was running away, so I killed him and
took the flag from him.
(points to his flag) |
|
| | TITINIUS |
| |
O Cassius, Brutus gave the word too early, |
| |
Who, having some advantage on Octavius, |
| |
Took it too eagerly. His soldiers fell to spoil, |
| |
Whilst we by Antony are all enclosed. |
|
| TITINIUS |
|
Oh, Cassius, Brutus gave the orders too soon. Having an advantage
over Octavius, he took it too eagerly, and his soldiers began
looting, and now we're surrounded by Antony's
men. |

| | PINDARUS |

Fly further off, my lord, fly further off. |
| |
Mark Antony is in your tents, my lord. |
| |
Fly, therefore, noble Cassius, fly far off. |
|
| PINDARUS |
|
Retreat further, my lord, retreat further. Mark Antony is in your
tents, my lord. Therefore you must run, noble Cassius. |
|
| | CASSIUS |
| |
This hill is far enough.—Look, look, Titinius. |
| |
Are those my tents where I perceive the fire? |
|
| CASSIUS |
|
This hill is far enough. Look, look, Titinius. Are those my tents
on fire? |
|
| | TITINIUS |
| 15 |
They are, my lord. |
|
| TITINIUS |
|
They are, my lord. |
|
| | CASSIUS |
| |
Titinius, if
thou lovest me, |
| |
Mount thou my horse, and hide thy spurs in him |
| |
Till he have brought thee up to yonder troops |
| |
And here again, that I may rest assured |
| |
Whether yond troops are friend or enemy. |
|
| CASSIUS |
|
Titinius, if you love me, get on your horse and spur him on until
he's brought you to those troops and back again, so that I
can find out whether those troops are friends or enemies. |
