Julius Caesar
The Same. A Street near the Capitol. |
|
Enter ARTEMIDORUS, reading a paper. |
Art. Cæsar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius; come not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna; trust not Trebonius; mark well Metellus Cimber; Decius Brutus loves thee not; thou hast wronged Caius Ligarius. There is but one mind in all these men, and it is bent against Cæsar. If thou be'st not immortal, look about you: security gives way to conspiracy. The mighty gods defend thee! Thy lover, ARTEMIDORUS. |
Here will I stand till Cæsar pass along, |
And as a suitor will I give him this. |
My heart laments that virtue cannot live |
Out of the teeth of emulation. |
If thou read this, O Cæsar! thou mayst live; |
If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive. [Exit. |
