 PORTIA
  I must go in. (aside) Ay me, how weak a thing
  The heart of woman is! O Brutus,
  The heavens speed thee in thine enterprise!
  Sure, the boy heard me. (to LUCIUS) Brutus hath a suit
45 That Caesar will not grant.—Oh, I grow faint.—
  Run, Lucius, and commend me to my lord.
  Say I am merry. Come to me again,
  And bring me word what he doth say to thee.
PORTIA
I must go in. (speaking quietly to herself) Oh, a woman's heart is so weak! Oh Brutus, may the gods aid you in your endeavor! Surely, the boy heard me. (to LUCIUS) Brutus has a claim that Caesar won't grant. Oh, I feel faint. Run, Lucius, and speak well of me to my lord. Say that I'm happy. Then return to me and tell me what he says to you.
Exeunt severally
They exit in opposite directions.
