<ACT><TITLE>ACT I</TITLE>
<SCENE><TITLE>SCENE I. Alexandria. A room in CLEOPATRA's palace.</TITLE>
<STAGEDIR>Enter DEMETRIUS and PHILO</STAGEDIR>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>PHILO</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, but this dotage of our general's</LINE>
<LINE>O'erflows the measure: those his goodly eyes,</LINE>
<LINE>That o'er the files and musters of the war</LINE>
<LINE>Have glow'd like plated Mars, now bend, now turn,</LINE>
<LINE>The office and devotion of their view</LINE>
<LINE>Upon a tawny front: his captain's heart,</LINE>
<LINE>Which in the scuffles of great fights hath burst</LINE>
<LINE>The buckles on his breast, reneges all temper,</LINE>
<LINE>And is become the bellows and the fan</LINE>
<LINE>To cool a gipsy's lust.</LINE>
<STAGEDIR>Flourish. Enter ANTONY, CLEOPATRA, her Ladies,
the Train, with Eunuchs fanning her</STAGEDIR>
<LINE>Look, where they come:</LINE>
<LINE>Take but good note, and you shall see in him.</LINE>
<LINE>The triple pillar of the world transform'd</LINE>
<LINE>Into a strumpet's fool: behold and see.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>If it be love indeed, tell me how much.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>There's beggary in the love that can be reckon'd.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I'll set a bourn how far to be beloved.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Then must thou needs find out new heaven, new earth.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<STAGEDIR>Enter an Attendant</STAGEDIR>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Attendant</SPEAKER>
<LINE>News, my good lord, from Rome.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Grates me: the sum.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, hear them, Antony:</LINE>
<LINE>Fulvia perchance is angry; or, who knows</LINE>
<LINE>If the scarce-bearded Caesar have not sent</LINE>
<LINE>His powerful mandate to you, 'Do this, or this;</LINE>
<LINE>Take in that kingdom, and enfranchise that;</LINE>
<LINE>Perform 't, or else we damn thee.'</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>How, my love!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Perchance! nay, and most like:</LINE>
<LINE>You must not stay here longer, your dismission</LINE>
<LINE>Is come from Caesar; therefore hear it, Antony.</LINE>
<LINE>Where's Fulvia's process? Caesar's I would say? both?</LINE>
<LINE>Call in the messengers. As I am Egypt's queen,</LINE>
<LINE>Thou blushest, Antony; and that blood of thine</LINE>
<LINE>Is Caesar's homager: else so thy cheek pays shame</LINE>
<LINE>When shrill-tongued Fulvia scolds. The messengers!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Let Rome in Tiber melt, and the wide arch</LINE>
<LINE>Of the ranged empire fall! Here is my space.</LINE>
<LINE>Kingdoms are clay: our dungy earth alike</LINE>
<LINE>Feeds beast as man: the nobleness of life</LINE>
<LINE>Is to do thus; when such a mutual pair</LINE>
<STAGEDIR>Embracing</STAGEDIR>
<LINE>And such a twain can do't, in which I bind,</LINE>
<LINE>On pain of punishment, the world to weet</LINE>
<LINE>We stand up peerless.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Excellent falsehood!</LINE>
<LINE>Why did he marry Fulvia, and not love her?</LINE>
<LINE>I'll seem the fool I am not; Antony</LINE>
<LINE>Will be himself.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>But stirr'd by Cleopatra.</LINE>
<LINE>Now, for the love of Love and her soft hours,</LINE>
<LINE>Let's not confound the time with conference harsh:</LINE>
<LINE>There's not a minute of our lives should stretch</LINE>
<LINE>Without some pleasure now. What sport tonight?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Hear the ambassadors.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Fie, wrangling queen!</LINE>
<LINE>Whom every thing becomes, to chide, to laugh,</LINE>
<LINE>To weep; whose every passion fully strives</LINE>
<LINE>To make itself, in thee, fair and admired!</LINE>
<LINE>No messenger, but thine; and all alone</LINE>
<LINE>To-night we'll wander through the streets and note</LINE>
<LINE>The qualities of people. Come, my queen;</LINE>
<LINE>Last night you did desire it: speak not to us.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<STAGEDIR>Exeunt MARK ANTONY and CLEOPATRA with
their train</STAGEDIR>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DEMETRIUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Is Caesar with Antonius prized so slight?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>PHILO</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Sir, sometimes, when he is not Antony,</LINE>
<LINE>He comes too short of that great property</LINE>
<LINE>Which still should go with Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DEMETRIUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I am full sorry</LINE>
<LINE>That he approves the common liar, who</LINE>
<LINE>Thus speaks of him at Rome: but I will hope</LINE>
<LINE>Of better deeds to-morrow. Rest you happy!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<STAGEDIR>Exeunt</STAGEDIR>
</SCENE>
<SCENE><TITLE>SCENE II. The same. Another room.</TITLE>
<STAGEDIR>Enter CHARMIAN, IRAS, ALEXAS, and a Soothsayer</STAGEDIR>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Lord Alexas, sweet Alexas, most any thing Alexas,</LINE>
<LINE>almost most absolute Alexas, where's the soothsayer</LINE>
<LINE>that you praised so to the queen? O, that I knew</LINE>
<LINE>this husband, which, you say, must charge his horns</LINE>
<LINE>with garlands!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Soothsayer!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Your will?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Is this the man? Is't you, sir, that know things?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>In nature's infinite book of secrecy</LINE>
<LINE>A little I can read.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Show him your hand.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<STAGEDIR>Enter DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</STAGEDIR>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Bring in the banquet quickly; wine enough</LINE>
<LINE>Cleopatra's health to drink.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Good sir, give me good fortune.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I make not, but foresee.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Pray, then, foresee me one.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You shall be yet far fairer than you are.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>He means in flesh.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>No, you shall paint when you are old.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Wrinkles forbid!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Vex not his prescience; be attentive.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Hush!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You shall be more beloving than beloved.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I had rather heat my liver with drinking.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, hear him.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Good now, some excellent fortune! Let me be married</LINE>
<LINE>to three kings in a forenoon, and widow them all:</LINE>
<LINE>let me have a child at fifty, to whom Herod of Jewry</LINE>
<LINE>may do homage: find me to marry me with Octavius</LINE>
<LINE>Caesar, and companion me with my mistress.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You shall outlive the lady whom you serve.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>O excellent! I love long life better than figs.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You have seen and proved a fairer former fortune</LINE>
<LINE>Than that which is to approach.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Then belike my children shall have no names:</LINE>
<LINE>prithee, how many boys and wenches must I have?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>If every of your wishes had a womb.</LINE>
<LINE>And fertile every wish, a million.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Out, fool! I forgive thee for a witch.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You think none but your sheets are privy to your wishes.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, come, tell Iras hers.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>We'll know all our fortunes.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Mine, and most of our fortunes, to-night, shall</LINE>
<LINE>be--drunk to bed.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>There's a palm presages chastity, if nothing else.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>E'en as the o'erflowing Nilus presageth famine.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Go, you wild bedfellow, you cannot soothsay.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, if an oily palm be not a fruitful</LINE>
<LINE>prognostication, I cannot scratch mine ear. Prithee,</LINE>
<LINE>tell her but a worky-day fortune.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Your fortunes are alike.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>But how, but how? give me particulars.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>Soothsayer</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I have said.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Am I not an inch of fortune better than she?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Well, if you were but an inch of fortune better than</LINE>
<LINE>I, where would you choose it?</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Not in my husband's nose.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Our worser thoughts heavens mend! Alexas,--come,</LINE>
<LINE>his fortune, his fortune! O, let him marry a woman</LINE>
<LINE>that cannot go, sweet Isis, I beseech thee! and let</LINE>
<LINE>her die too, and give him a worse! and let worst</LINE>
<LINE>follow worse, till the worst of all follow him</LINE>
<LINE>laughing to his grave, fifty-fold a cuckold! Good</LINE>
<LINE>Isis, hear me this prayer, though thou deny me a</LINE>
<LINE>matter of more weight; good Isis, I beseech thee!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>IRAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Amen. Dear goddess, hear that prayer of the people!</LINE>
<LINE>for, as it is a heartbreaking to see a handsome man</LINE>
<LINE>loose-wived, so it is a deadly sorrow to behold a</LINE>
<LINE>foul knave uncuckolded: therefore, dear Isis, keep</LINE>
<LINE>decorum, and fortune him accordingly!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Amen.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Lo, now, if it lay in their hands to make me a</LINE>
<LINE>cuckold, they would make themselves whores, but</LINE>
<LINE>they'ld do't!</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Hush! here comes Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>
<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Not he; the queen.</LINE>
