<LINE>Where think'st thou he is now? Stands he, or sits he?</LINE>
<LINE>Or does he walk? or is he on his horse?</LINE>
<LINE>O happy horse, to bear the weight of Antony!</LINE>
<LINE>Do bravely, horse! for wot'st thou whom thou movest?</LINE>
<LINE>The demi-Atlas of this earth, the arm</LINE>
<LINE>And burgonet of men. He's speaking now,</LINE>
<LINE>Or murmuring 'Where's my serpent of old Nile?'</LINE>
<LINE>For so he calls me: now I feed myself</LINE>
<LINE>With most delicious poison. Think on me,</LINE>
<LINE>That am with Phoebus' amorous pinches black,</LINE>
<LINE>And wrinkled deep in time? Broad-fronted Caesar,</LINE>
<LINE>When thou wast here above the ground, I was</LINE>
<LINE>A morsel for a monarch: and great Pompey</LINE>
<LINE>Would stand and make his eyes grow in my brow;</LINE>
<LINE>There would he anchor his aspect and die</LINE>
<LINE>With looking on his life.</LINE>

<STAGEDIR>Enter ALEXAS, from OCTAVIUS CAESAR</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Sovereign of Egypt, hail!</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>How much unlike art thou Mark Antony!</LINE>
<LINE>Yet, coming from him, that great medicine hath</LINE>
<LINE>With his tinct gilded thee.</LINE>
<LINE>How goes it with my brave Mark Antony?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Last thing he did, dear queen,</LINE>
<LINE>He kiss'd,--the last of many doubled kisses,--</LINE>
<LINE>This orient pearl. His speech sticks in my heart.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Mine ear must pluck it thence.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>'Good friend,' quoth he,</LINE>
<LINE>'Say, the firm Roman to great Egypt sends</LINE>
<LINE>This treasure of an oyster; at whose foot,</LINE>
<LINE>To mend the petty present, I will piece</LINE>
<LINE>Her opulent throne with kingdoms; all the east,</LINE>
<LINE>Say thou, shall call her mistress.' So he nodded,</LINE>
<LINE>And soberly did mount an arm-gaunt steed,</LINE>
<LINE>Who neigh'd so high, that what I would have spoke</LINE>
<LINE>Was beastly dumb'd by him.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>What, was he sad or merry?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Like to the time o' the year between the extremes</LINE>
<LINE>Of hot and cold, he was nor sad nor merry.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>O well-divided disposition! Note him,</LINE>
<LINE>Note him good Charmian, 'tis the man; but note him:</LINE>
<LINE>He was not sad, for he would shine on those</LINE>
<LINE>That make their looks by his; he was not merry,</LINE>
<LINE>Which seem'd to tell them his remembrance lay</LINE>
<LINE>In Egypt with his joy; but between both:</LINE>
<LINE>O heavenly mingle! Be'st thou sad or merry,</LINE>
<LINE>The violence of either thee becomes,</LINE>
<LINE>So does it no man else. Met'st thou my posts?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>ALEXAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Ay, madam, twenty several messengers:</LINE>
<LINE>Why do you send so thick?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Who's born that day</LINE>
<LINE>When I forget to send to Antony,</LINE>
<LINE>Shall die a beggar. Ink and paper, Charmian.</LINE>
<LINE>Welcome, my good Alexas. Did I, Charmian,</LINE>
<LINE>Ever love Caesar so?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>O that brave Caesar!</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Be choked with such another emphasis!</LINE>
<LINE>Say, the brave Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>The valiant Caesar!</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>By Isis, I will give thee bloody teeth,</LINE>
<LINE>If thou with Caesar paragon again</LINE>
<LINE>My man of men.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CHARMIAN</SPEAKER>
<LINE>By your most gracious pardon,</LINE>
<LINE>I sing but after you.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>CLEOPATRA</SPEAKER>
<LINE>My salad days,</LINE>
<LINE>When I was green in judgment: cold in blood,</LINE>
<LINE>To say as I said then! But, come, away;</LINE>
<LINE>Get me ink and paper:</LINE>
<LINE>He shall have every day a several greeting,</LINE>
<LINE>Or I'll unpeople Egypt.</LINE>

<ACT><TITLE>ACT II</TITLE>

<SCENE><TITLE>SCENE I.  Messina. POMPEY's house.</TITLE>
<STAGEDIR>Enter POMPEY, MENECRATES, and MENAS, in
warlike manner</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>If the great gods be just, they shall assist</LINE>
<LINE>The deeds of justest men.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MENECRATES</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Know, worthy Pompey,</LINE>
<LINE>That what they do delay, they not deny.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Whiles we are suitors to their throne, decays</LINE>
<LINE>The thing we sue for.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MENECRATES</SPEAKER>
<LINE>We, ignorant of ourselves,</LINE>
<LINE>Beg often our own harms, which the wise powers</LINE>
<LINE>Deny us for our good; so find we profit</LINE>
<LINE>By losing of our prayers.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I shall do well:</LINE>
<LINE>The people love me, and the sea is mine;</LINE>
<LINE>My powers are crescent, and my auguring hope</LINE>
<LINE>Says it will come to the full. Mark Antony</LINE>
<LINE>In Egypt sits at dinner, and will make</LINE>
<LINE>No wars without doors: Caesar gets money where</LINE>
<LINE>He loses hearts: Lepidus flatters both,</LINE>
<LINE>Of both is flatter'd; but he neither loves,</LINE>
<LINE>Nor either cares for him.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MENAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Caesar and Lepidus</LINE>
<LINE>Are in the field: a mighty strength they carry.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Where have you this? 'tis false.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MENAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>From Silvius, sir.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>He dreams: I know they are in Rome together,</LINE>
<LINE>Looking for Antony. But all the charms of love,</LINE>
<LINE>Salt Cleopatra, soften thy waned lip!</LINE>
<LINE>Let witchcraft join with beauty, lust with both!</LINE>
<LINE>Tie up the libertine in a field of feasts,</LINE>
<LINE>Keep his brain fuming; Epicurean cooks</LINE>
<LINE>Sharpen with cloyless sauce his appetite;</LINE>
<LINE>That sleep and feeding may prorogue his honour</LINE>
<LINE>Even till a Lethe'd dulness!</LINE>
<STAGEDIR>Enter VARRIUS</STAGEDIR>
<LINE>How now, Varrius!</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>VARRIUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>This is most certain that I shall deliver:</LINE>
<LINE>Mark Antony is every hour in Rome</LINE>
<LINE>Expected: since he went from Egypt 'tis</LINE>
<LINE>A space for further travel.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I could have given less matter</LINE>
<LINE>A better ear. Menas, I did not think</LINE>
<LINE>This amorous surfeiter would have donn'd his helm</LINE>
<LINE>For such a petty war: his soldiership</LINE>
<LINE>Is twice the other twain: but let us rear</LINE>
<LINE>The higher our opinion, that our stirring</LINE>
<LINE>Can from the lap of Egypt's widow pluck</LINE>
<LINE>The ne'er-lust-wearied Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MENAS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I cannot hope</LINE>
<LINE>Caesar and Antony shall well greet together:</LINE>
<LINE>His wife that's dead did trespasses to Caesar;</LINE>
<LINE>His brother warr'd upon him; although, I think,</LINE>
<LINE>Not moved by Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>POMPEY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I know not, Menas,</LINE>
<LINE>How lesser enmities may give way to greater.</LINE>
<LINE>Were't not that we stand up against them all,</LINE>
<LINE>'Twere pregnant they should square between</LINE>
<LINE>themselves;</LINE>
<LINE>For they have entertained cause enough</LINE>
<LINE>To draw their swords: but how the fear of us</LINE>
<LINE>May cement their divisions and bind up</LINE>
<LINE>The petty difference, we yet not know.</LINE>
<LINE>Be't as our gods will have't! It only stands</LINE>
<LINE>Our lives upon to use our strongest hands.</LINE>
<LINE>Come, Menas.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SCENE><TITLE>SCENE II.  Rome. The house of LEPIDUS.</TITLE>
<STAGEDIR>Enter DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS and LEPIDUS</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>LEPIDUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Good Enobarbus, 'tis a worthy deed,</LINE>
<LINE>And shall become you well, to entreat your captain</LINE>
<LINE>To soft and gentle speech.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I shall entreat him</LINE>
<LINE>To answer like himself: if Caesar move him,</LINE>
<LINE>Let Antony look over Caesar's head</LINE>
<LINE>And speak as loud as Mars. By Jupiter,</LINE>
<LINE>Were I the wearer of Antonius' beard,</LINE>
<LINE>I would not shave't to-day.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>LEPIDUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>'Tis not a time</LINE>
<LINE>For private stomaching.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Every time</LINE>
<LINE>Serves for the matter that is then born in't.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>LEPIDUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>But small to greater matters must give way.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Not if the small come first.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>LEPIDUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Your speech is passion:</LINE>
<LINE>But, pray you, stir no embers up. Here comes</LINE>
<LINE>The noble Antony.</LINE>
</SPEECH>


<STAGEDIR>Enter MARK ANTONY and VENTIDIUS</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>And yonder, Caesar.</LINE>
</SPEECH>


<STAGEDIR>Enter OCTAVIUS CAESAR, MECAENAS, and AGRIPPA</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>If we compose well here, to Parthia:</LINE>
<LINE>Hark, Ventidius.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I do not know,</LINE>
<LINE>Mecaenas; ask Agrippa.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>LEPIDUS</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Noble friends,</LINE>
<LINE>That which combined us was most great, and let not</LINE>
<LINE>A leaner action rend us. What's amiss,</LINE>
<LINE>May it be gently heard: when we debate</LINE>
<LINE>Our trivial difference loud, we do commit</LINE>
<LINE>Murder in healing wounds: then, noble partners,</LINE>
<LINE>The rather, for I earnestly beseech,</LINE>
<LINE>Touch you the sourest points with sweetest terms,</LINE>
<LINE>Nor curstness grow to the matter.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>'Tis spoken well.</LINE>
<LINE>Were we before our armies, and to fight.</LINE>
<LINE>I should do thus.</LINE>
</SPEECH>


<STAGEDIR>Flourish</STAGEDIR>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Welcome to Rome.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Thank you.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Sit.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Sit, sir.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Nay, then.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I learn, you take things ill which are not so,</LINE>
<LINE>Or being, concern you not.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>I must be laugh'd at,</LINE>
<LINE>If, or for nothing or a little, I</LINE>
<LINE>Should say myself offended, and with you</LINE>
<LINE>Chiefly i' the world; more laugh'd at, that I should</LINE>
<LINE>Once name you derogately, when to sound your name</LINE>
<LINE>It not concern'd me.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>My being in Egypt, Caesar,</LINE>
<LINE>What was't to you?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>No more than my residing here at Rome</LINE>
<LINE>Might be to you in Egypt: yet, if you there</LINE>
<LINE>Did practise on my state, your being in Egypt</LINE>
<LINE>Might be my question.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>How intend you, practised?</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You may be pleased to catch at mine intent</LINE>
<LINE>By what did here befal me. Your wife and brother</LINE>
<LINE>Made wars upon me; and their contestation</LINE>
<LINE>Was theme for you, you were the word of war.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You do mistake your business; my brother never</LINE>
<LINE>Did urge me in his act: I did inquire it;</LINE>
<LINE>And have my learning from some true reports,</LINE>
<LINE>That drew their swords with you. Did he not rather</LINE>
<LINE>Discredit my authority with yours;</LINE>
<LINE>And make the wars alike against my stomach,</LINE>
<LINE>Having alike your cause? Of this my letters</LINE>
<LINE>Before did satisfy you. If you'll patch a quarrel,</LINE>
<LINE>As matter whole you have not to make it with,</LINE>
<LINE>It must not be with this.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>OCTAVIUS CAESAR</SPEAKER>
<LINE>You praise yourself</LINE>
<LINE>By laying defects of judgment to me; but</LINE>
<LINE>You patch'd up your excuses.</LINE>
</SPEECH>

<SPEECH>
<SPEAKER>MARK ANTONY</SPEAKER>
<LINE>Not so, not so;</LINE>
<LINE>I know you could not lack, I am certain on't,</LINE>
<LINE>Very necessity of this thought, that I,</LINE>
<LINE>Your partner in the cause 'gainst which he fought,</LINE>
<LINE>Could not with graceful eyes attend those wars</LINE>
<LINE>Which fronted mine own peace. As for my wife,</LINE>
<LINE>I would you had her spirit in such another:</LINE>
<LINE>The third o' the world is yours; which with a snaffle</LINE>
