And tell me what thou notest about the field.

PINDARUS
(above) Titinius is
enclosèd round about
With horsemen, that make to him on the spur.
Yet he spurs on. Now they are almost on him.
Now, Titinius. Now some light. Oh, he lights too.
He’s ta'en.

PINDARUS
(above) Titinius is surrounded by
horsemen who are quickly approaching him, yet he spurs onward. Now
they’re almost on him. Now, Titinius! Now some dismount.
Oh, he gets down too. He’s taken.

To see my best friend ta'en before my face!
