<H3>SCENE II. The Forum.</h3>

<p><blockquote>
<i>Enter BRUTUS and CASSIUS, and a throng of Citizens</i>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech1><b>Citizens</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=1>We will be satisfied; let us be satisfied.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech2><b>BRUTUS</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=2>Then follow me, and give me audience, friends.</A><br>
<A NAME=3>Cassius, go you into the other street,</A><br>
<A NAME=4>And part the numbers.</A><br>
<A NAME=5>Those that will hear me speak, let 'em stay here;</A><br>
<A NAME=6>Those that will follow Cassius, go with him;</A><br>
<A NAME=7>And public reasons shall be rendered</A><br>
<A NAME=8>Of Caesar's death.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech3><b>First Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=9>                  I will hear Brutus speak.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech4><b>Second Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=10>I will hear Cassius; and compare their reasons,</A><br>
<A NAME=11>When severally we hear them rendered.</A><br>
<p><i>Exit CASSIUS, with some of the Citizens. BRUTUS goes into the pulpit</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech5><b>Third Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=12>The noble Brutus is ascended: silence!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech6><b>BRUTUS</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=13>Be patient till the last.</A><br>
<A NAME=14>Romans, countrymen, and lovers! hear me for my</A><br>
<A NAME=15>cause, and be silent, that you may hear: believe me</A><br>
<A NAME=16>for mine honour, and have respect to mine honour, that</A><br>
<A NAME=17>you may believe: censure me in your wisdom, and</A><br>
<A NAME=18>awake your senses, that you may the better judge.</A><br>
<A NAME=19>If there be any in this assembly, any dear friend of</A><br>
<A NAME=20>Caesar's, to him I say, that Brutus' love to Caesar</A><br>
<A NAME=21>was no less than his. If then that friend demand</A><br>
<A NAME=22>why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer:</A><br>
<A NAME=23>--Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved</A><br>
<A NAME=24>Rome more. Had you rather Caesar were living and</A><br>
<A NAME=25>die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live</A><br>
<A NAME=26>all free men? As Caesar loved me, I weep for him;</A><br>
<A NAME=27>as he was fortunate, I rejoice at it; as he was</A><br>
<A NAME=28>valiant, I honour him: but, as he was ambitious, I</A><br>
<A NAME=29>slew him. There is tears for his love; joy for his</A><br>
<A NAME=30>fortune; honour for his valour; and death for his</A><br>
<A NAME=31>ambition. Who is here so base that would be a</A><br>
<A NAME=32>bondman? If any, speak; for him have I offended.</A><br>
<A NAME=33>Who is here so rude that would not be a Roman? If</A><br>
<A NAME=34>any, speak; for him have I offended. Who is here so</A><br>
<A NAME=35>vile that will not love his country? If any, speak;</A><br>
<A NAME=36>for him have I offended. I pause for a reply.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech7><b>All</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=37>None, Brutus, none.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech8><b>BRUTUS</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=38>Then none have I offended. I have done no more to</A><br>
<A NAME=39>Caesar than you shall do to Brutus. The question of</A><br>
<A NAME=40>his death is enrolled in the Capitol; his glory not</A><br>
<A NAME=41>extenuated, wherein he was worthy, nor his offences</A><br>
<A NAME=42>enforced, for which he suffered death.</A><br>
<p><i>Enter ANTONY and others, with CAESAR's body</i></p>
<A NAME=43>Here comes his body, mourned by Mark Antony: who,</A><br>
<A NAME=44>though he had no hand in his death, shall receive</A><br>
<A NAME=45>the benefit of his dying, a place in the</A><br>
<A NAME=46>commonwealth; as which of you shall not? With this</A><br>
<A NAME=47>I depart,--that, as I slew my best lover for the</A><br>
<A NAME=48>good of Rome, I have the same dagger for myself,</A><br>
<A NAME=49>when it shall please my country to need my death.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech9><b>All</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=50>Live, Brutus! live, live!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech10><b>First Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=51>Bring him with triumph home unto his house.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech11><b>Second Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=52>Give him a statue with his ancestors.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech12><b>Third Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=53>Let him be Caesar.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech13><b>Fourth Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=54>                  Caesar's better parts</A><br>
<A NAME=55>Shall be crown'd in Brutus.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech14><b>First Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=56>We'll bring him to his house</A><br>
<A NAME=57>With shouts and clamours.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech15><b>BRUTUS</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=58>My countrymen,--</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech16><b>Second Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=59>Peace, silence! Brutus speaks.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech17><b>First Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=60>Peace, ho!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech18><b>BRUTUS</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=61>Good countrymen, let me depart alone,</A><br>
<A NAME=62>And, for my sake, stay here with Antony:</A><br>
<A NAME=63>Do grace to Caesar's corpse, and grace his speech</A><br>
<A NAME=64>Tending to Caesar's glories; which Mark Antony,</A><br>
<A NAME=65>By our permission, is allow'd to make.</A><br>
<A NAME=66>I do entreat you, not a man depart,</A><br>
<A NAME=67>Save I alone, till Antony have spoke.</A><br>
<p><i>Exit</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech19><b>First Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=68>Stay, ho! and let us hear Mark Antony.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech20><b>Third Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=69>Let him go up into the public chair;</A><br>
<A NAME=70>We'll hear him. Noble Antony, go up.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech21><b>ANTONY</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=71>For Brutus' sake, I am beholding to you.</A><br>
<p><i>Goes into the pulpit</i></p>

<A NAME=83>I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.</A><br>
<A NAME=84>The evil that men do lives after them;</A><br>
<A NAME=85>The good is oft interred with their bones;</A><br>
<A NAME=86>So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus</A><br>
<A NAME=87>Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:</A><br>
<A NAME=88>If it were so, it was a grievous fault,</A><br>
<A NAME=89>And grievously hath Caesar answer'd it.</A><br>
<A NAME=90>Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest--</A><br>
<A NAME=91>For Brutus is an honourable man;</A><br>
<A NAME=92>So are they all, all honourable men--</A><br>
<A NAME=93>Come I to speak in Caesar's funeral.</A><br>
<A NAME=94>He was my friend, faithful and just to me:</A><br>
<A NAME=95>But Brutus says he was ambitious;</A><br>
<A NAME=96>And Brutus is an honourable man.</A><br>
<A NAME=97>He hath brought many captives home to Rome</A><br>
<A NAME=98>Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:</A><br>
<A NAME=99>Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?</A><br>
<A NAME=100>When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:</A><br>
<A NAME=101>Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:</A><br>
<A NAME=102>Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;</A><br>
<A NAME=103>And Brutus is an honourable man.</A><br>
<A NAME=104>You all did see that on the Lupercal</A><br>
<A NAME=105>I thrice presented him a kingly crown,</A><br>
<A NAME=106>Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?</A><br>
<A NAME=107>Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;</A><br>
<A NAME=108>And, sure, he is an honourable man.</A><br>
<A NAME=109>I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,</A><br>
<A NAME=110>But here I am to speak what I do know.</A><br>
<A NAME=111>You all did love him once, not without cause:</A><br>
<A NAME=112>What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?</A><br>
<A NAME=113>O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,</A><br>
<A NAME=114>And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;</A><br>
<A NAME=115>My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,</A><br>

<A NAME=speech34><b>Fourth Citizen</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=122>Mark'd ye his words? He would not take the crown;</A><br>
<A NAME=123>Therefore 'tis certain he was not ambitious.</A><br>

<A NAME=182>That day he overcame the Nervii:</A><br>
<A NAME=183>Look, in this place ran Cassius' dagger through:</A><br>
<A NAME=184>See what a rent the envious Casca made:</A><br>
<A NAME=185>Through this the well-beloved Brutus stabb'd;</A><br>
<A NAME=186>And as he pluck'd his cursed steel away,</A><br>
<A NAME=187>Mark how the blood of Caesar follow'd it,</A><br>

<A NAME=189>If Brutus so unkindly knock'd, or no;</A><br>
<A NAME=190>For Brutus, as you know, was Caesar's angel:</A><br>

<A NAME=194>Ingratitude, more strong than traitors' arms,</A><br>
<A NAME=195>Quite vanquish'd him: then burst his mighty heart;</A><br>
<A NAME=196>And, in his mantle muffling up his face,</A><br>
<A NAME=197>Even at the base of Pompey's statua,</A><br>
<A NAME=198>Which all the while ran blood, great Caesar fell.</A><br>
