Call our cares fears; which will in time |
Break ope the locks o' the senate and bring in |
The crows to peck the eagles. |
MENENIUS: |
Come, enough. |
BRUTUS: |
Enough, with over-measure. |
CORIOLANUS: |
No, take more: |
What may be sworn by, both divine and human, |
Seal what I end withal! This double worship, |
Where one part does disdain with cause, the other |
Insult without all reason, where gentry, title, wisdom, |
Cannot conclude but by the yea and no |
Of general ignorance,--it must omit |
Real necessities, and give way the while |
To unstable slightness: purpose so barr'd, |
it follows, |
Nothing is done to purpose. Therefore, beseech you,-- |
You that will be less fearful than discreet, |
That love the fundamental part of state |
More than you doubt the change on't, that prefer |
A noble life before a long, and wish |
To jump a body with a dangerous physic |
That's sure of death without it, at once pluck out |
The multitudinous tongue; let them not lick |
The sweet which is their poison: your dishonour |
Mangles true judgment and bereaves the state |
Of that integrity which should become't, |
Not having the power to do the good it would, |
For the in which doth control't. |
BRUTUS: |
Has said enough. |
SICINIUS: |
Has spoken like a traitor, and shall answer |
As traitors do. |
CORIOLANUS: |
Thou wretch, despite o'erwhelm thee! |
What should the people do with these bald tribunes? |
On whom depending, their obedience fails |
To the greater bench: in a rebellion, |
When what's not meet, but what must be, was law, |
Then were they chosen: in a better hour, |
Let what is meet be said it must be meet, |
And throw their power i' the dust. |
BRUTUS: |
Manifest treason! |
SICINIUS: |
This a consul? no. |
BRUTUS: |
The aediles, ho! |
Let him be apprehended. |
SICINIUS: |
Go, call the people: |
in whose name myself |
Attach thee as a traitorous innovator, |
A foe to the public weal: obey, I charge thee, |
And follow to thine answer. |
CORIOLANUS: |
Hence, old goat! |
Senators, &C: |
We'll surety him. |
COMINIUS: |
Aged sir, hands off. |
CORIOLANUS: |
Hence, rotten thing! or I shall shake thy bones |
Out of thy garments. |
SICINIUS: |
Help, ye citizens! |
MENENIUS: |
On both sides more respect. |
SICINIUS: |
Here's he that would take from you all your power. |
BRUTUS: |
Seize him, AEdiles! |
Citizens: |
Down with him! down with him! |
Senators, &C: |
Weapons, weapons, weapons! |
'Tribunes!' 'Patricians!' 'Citizens!' 'What, ho!' |
