Room, ho! Tell Antony Brutus is ta'en. |
|
| SECOND SOLDIER |
|
Make room! Tell Antony that Brutus has been taken. |
|
| | FIRST SOLDIER |
| |
I'll tell the news. Here comes the general. |
| |
—Brutus is ta'en, Brutus is ta'en,
my lord. |
|
| FIRST SOLDIER |
|
I'll tell him the news. Oh, here comes the
general—Brutus has been caught, Brutus is taken, my
lord. |

Safe, Antony. Brutus is safe enough. |
| |
I dare assure thee that no enemy |
| |
Shall ever take alive the noble Brutus. |
| |
The gods defend him from so great a shame! |
| |
When you do find him, or alive or dead, |
| 25 |
He will be found like Brutus, like himself. |
|
| LUCILLIUS |
|
He's safe, Antony. I can assure you that no enemy will
ever take the noble Brutus alive. The gods protect him from so great
a shame! When you do find him, alive or dead, he'll be
found on his own terms. |
|
| | ANTONY |
| |
(to
SOLDIERS) This is not Brutus, friend,
but, I assure you, |
| |
A prize no less in worth. Keep this man safe. |
| |
Give him all kindness. I had rather have |
| |
Such men my friends than enemies. Go on, |
| 30 |
And see whether Brutus be alive or dead. |
| |
And bring us word unto Octavius' tent |
| |
How everything is chanced. |
|
| ANTONY |
|
(to
SOLDIERS) This isn't Brutus,
friend, but, I assure you, he is a valuable prize. Keep this man
safe. Be kind to him. I would rather have such men as friends than
enemies. Move on, find out if Brutus is alive or dead, then return
to Octavius's tent to tell us what you've
learned. |
