Transcript
00:00:00Caesar was chosen consul for the fourth time and went into Spain to make war with the sons
00:00:25of Pompey who were very young. The greatest battle fought between them in this civil war was here
00:00:38at Munda and they put Caesar himself in great danger of his life. He slew 30,000 of them in
00:00:49the field and lost of his own men 1,000 of the best he had. This was the last war that Caesar made
00:01:07and on his return to Rome the people named him perpetual dictator. Hail Caesar!
00:01:19Hail Caesar!
00:01:49Hail Caesar!
00:02:19Hail Caesar!
00:03:49Hail Caesar!
00:04:01Hail Caesar!
00:04:09Hail Caesar!
00:04:22Hail Caesar!
00:04:24Hail Caesar!
00:04:26Hail Caesar!
00:04:29Thou art a cobbler art thou? I am indeed a surgeon to old shoes and when they be in great
00:04:35danger I recover them. Wherefore art thou not in thy shop today? Why dost thou leave these men about
00:04:41the streets? Truly sir to wear out their shoes to get myself into more work. Indeed sir we make a
00:04:49holiday to see Caesar and we rejoice at his triumph.
00:05:00Wherefore rejoice? What conquest brings he home?
00:05:07What tributaries follow him to Rome? To grace and captive bonds his giant leels?
00:05:13You blocks! You stones! You worst and senseless things! Oh you hard hearts!
00:05:24You cruel men of Rome! You you not Pompey? Many a time enough have you climbed up walls
00:05:32to battlements and towers to windows high and chimney tops to see great Pompey pass the streets
00:05:39of Rome. Do you now call out a holiday?
00:05:44And do you now strew flowers in his way? Who comes in triumph over Pompey's blood?
00:05:55Be gone! Run to your houses! Fall upon your knees!
00:06:03Pray to the gods to intermit the plague that needs must light on this ingratitude.
00:06:08Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!
00:06:33Caesar speaks! California? Here my lord.
00:06:38Stand you directly in Antonius way. Will he not run his course? Antonius! Caesar my lord.
00:06:44Get not in your speed Antonius to touch Calpurnia. For our elders say the barren
00:06:50touch it in this holy chase. Shake off their sterile curse. Remember when Caesar says do this
00:06:57it is performed. Set on and leave no ceremony out.
00:07:03Caesar!
00:07:09Now who calls? With every noise we still. He's yet again. Who is it in the press that calls on me?
00:07:17I hear a voice shriller than all the music. Cry Caesar!
00:07:22Speak! Caesar is turned to hear. Beware the Ides of March!
00:07:33Beware the Ides of March! What man is that? A soothsayer bid you beware the Ides of March.
00:07:46Set him before me. Let me see his face. Fellow come from the throng. Look upon Caesar.
00:07:55What says thou to me now? Speak once again.
00:07:58Beware the Ides of March.
00:08:14He is a dreamer. Let us leave him. Pass.
00:08:28Will you go see the order of the course? Not I. I pray you do. I am not gamesome.
00:08:42I do lack some of that quick spirit that is in Antony.
00:08:53Let me not hinder Cassius your desires. I'll leave you.
00:08:58Brutus. I do observe you now of late. I have not from your eyes that gentleness and show of love
00:09:12as I was wont to have. You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand over your friend that loves you.
00:09:18Tell me good Brutus, can you see your face? No, Cassius, for the eye sees not itself but by
00:09:27reflection. I have heard where many of the best respect in Rome, except immortal Caesar.
00:09:38Speaking of Brutus and groaning underneath this age's yoke, I have wished that noble Brutus had
00:09:44his eyes. Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, that you would have me seek into myself
00:09:51for that which is not in me? What means this shouting?
00:10:03I do fear the people choose Caesar for their king. I, do you fear it?
00:10:09Do you fear it?
00:10:13Then must I think you would not have it so? I would not, Cassius.
00:10:22Yet I love him well.
00:10:29I cannot tell what you and other men think of this life, but for my single self
00:10:38I had as little not be as live to be in awe of such a thing as I was.
00:10:45I was born free as Caesar, so were you.
00:10:49We both are fed as well, and we can both endure the winter's cold as well as he.
00:10:54And this man has now become a god, and Cassius is a wretched creature
00:11:01that must bend his body of Caesar carelessly, but not on him.
00:11:13He had a fever when he was in Spain, and he had a fever when he was in Rome.
00:11:20He had a fever when he was in Spain, and when the fit was on him I did note how he did shake.
00:11:28It is true, this god did shake. His coward lips did from their colour fly.
00:11:36I had that tongue of his that bade the Romans mark him and write his speeches in their books.
00:11:42Alas, he cried, give me some drink, Titineus, as a sick girl.
00:11:50He does amaze me. A man of such a feeble temper should so get the start of the majestic world
00:11:57and bear the palm alone.
00:12:02Another general's shout.
00:12:05I do believe that these applauses are for some new honours that are due.
00:12:09These applauses are for some new honours that are heaped on Caesar.
00:12:13My man, he doth bestride the narrow world like a colossus,
00:12:19and we petty men walk under his huge legs and peep about to find ourselves dishonourable graves.
00:12:29Men, at some time, are masters of their fates.
00:12:36The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars but in ourselves that we are underlings.
00:12:46Brutus and Caesar,
00:12:48what should be in that Caesar? Why should that name be sounded more than yours?
00:12:56Write them together. Yours is as fair a name. Sound them, it doth become the mouth as well.
00:13:05Weigh them, it is as heavy.
00:13:06Write them together. Yours is as fair a name. Sound them, it doth become the mouth as well.
00:13:16Weigh them, it is as heavy. Conjure with them. Brutus will start a spirit as soon as Caesar.
00:13:24Now in the names of all the gods at once, upon what meat doth this arse of Caesar feed
00:13:30that he is grown so great?
00:13:35Age, thou art shamed. When went there by an age? Since the great flood, when they could say,
00:13:44till now, that talked of Rome, that her wide walls encompass but one man.
00:14:03What you have said, I will consider.
00:14:05What you have to say, I will with patience hear, and find a time both neat to hear and answer such
00:14:12high things. Till then, my noble friend, to upon us, Brutus had rather be a villager than to repute
00:14:20himself a son of Rome under these hard conditions, as this time is like to lay upon us.
00:14:27I am glad that my weak words have struck but thus much show of fire for Brutus.
00:14:37Good look, Eutachius. The angry spot doth glow on Caesar's brow, and all the rest look like a
00:14:42chidden train. Calpurnia's cheek is pale, and Cicero looks with such ferret and such fiery eyes
00:14:50as we have seen him in the past.
00:14:52Cicero looks with such ferret and such fiery eyes as we have seen him in the
00:14:56capital being crossed in conference by some senators.
00:15:04Antonius. Caesar. Let me have men about me that are fat, sleek-headed men in such a sleep of nights.
00:15:12John Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.
00:15:20Cassica will tell us what the matter is. It's not dangerous. He's a noble Roman, and we'll give him.
00:15:27Would he were fatter, but I fear him not. Is it my name reliable to fear? I do not know the man I
00:15:36should avoid so soon as that spare Cassius. He reads much, he is a great observer, and he sees
00:15:43quite through the deeds of men. He loves no plays as thou dost, Antony. He hears no music.
00:15:51Such men as he are never at heart's ease when they behold it greater than themselves,
00:15:56and therefore is he very dangerous. I rather tell thee what is to be feared than what I fear.
00:16:03For always I am Caesar. Come on my right hand, for this here is death, and tell me truly what thou
00:16:11think'st of him. Cassica.
00:16:20Would you speak with me? Ay, Cassica.
00:16:25Tell us what is the chance today that Caesar seems so sad. Why, there was a crown offered him,
00:16:30and being offered him, he put it by with the back of his hand. Thus. What was the second noise for?
00:16:36Why, for that too. They shouted thrice. What was the last cry for? Why, for that too.
00:16:43Was the crown offered him thrice? Ay, merry was it, and he put it by thrice,
00:16:50every time, gentler than other, and at every putting by mine honest neighbors shouted.
00:16:56Who offered him the crown? Why, Antony. Tell us the manner of it, gentle Cassica.
00:17:03I can as well be hanged as tell the manner of it. It was mere foolery I did not mark it.
00:17:08I saw Mark Antony offered him a crown, yet it was not a crown neither, it was one of these coronets,
00:17:14and as I told you he put it by once, but for all that, to my thinking, he would fain have had it.
00:17:19And then he offered it to him again, and he put it by again, but to my thinking he was very loath
00:17:25to lay his fingers off it, and then he offered it the third time. He put it the third time by,
00:17:32and still as he refused it, the rabblemen hooted and clapped their chopped hands, and threw up
00:17:37their sweaty nightgowns, and uttered such a deal of stinking breath, because Caesar refused the
00:17:42crown, that it had almost choked Caesar, but he swooned and fell down at it. But such I pray you,
00:17:48what did Caesar swoon? He fell down in the marketplace, and foamed at mouth, and was
00:17:53speechless. It is very like he had the falling sickness. Caesar hath it not, but you and I
00:17:59an honest Casca, we have the falling sickness. I know not what you mean by that, but before he
00:18:07fell down, when he perceived the common herd was glad he refused the crown, he offered them his
00:18:12throat to cut, and so he fell. Three or four wenches where I stood cried, alas good soul,
00:18:20and forgave him with all their hearts. There's no heed to be taken of them, if Caesar had stabbed
00:18:25their mothers, they would have done no less. And after that he came thus sad away? Ay, did Cicero say
00:18:33anything? Ay, he spoke Greek. To what effect? It was Greek to me.
00:18:45I could tell you more news too. Morales and Pladius for tearing scarves off Caesar's images
00:18:51outward to silence. Very well. Ah, there was more foolery yet, if I could remember it.
00:19:05Will you sup with me tonight, Casca? No, I am promised for. Will you dine with me tomorrow?
00:19:11Ay, if I be alive, and your mind whole, and your dinner worth the eating.
00:19:16Good, I will expect you. Do so. Farewell.
00:19:24Both.
00:19:28To them. Think of the world.
00:19:32And after this, let Caesar seat him sure, or we will shake him. All worse days endure.
00:20:33Who's there?
00:20:50A Roman. Cassis.
00:20:55What night is this? Whoever knew the heavens menace so. Those that have known the earth's
00:21:02so full of faults. Now could I, Casca, name to thee a man most like this dreadful night?
00:21:12A man no mightier than thyself or me in personal action, yet prodigious grown,
00:21:24and fearful as these strange eruptions are.
00:21:28Is Caesar that you mean? Is it not Cassis? Let it be who it is. Indeed they say the senators
00:21:36tomorrow mean to establish Caesar as a king, and he shall wear his crown by sea and land in every
00:21:42place, save here in Italy. I know where I will wear this dagger then. Cassius from bondage will
00:21:50deliver Cassius. If I know this, know all the world besides. That part of tyranny that I do bear, I can shake off at pleasure.
00:22:07So can I. So every bondman in his own hand bears the power to cancel his captivity.
00:22:15And why should Caesar be a tyrant then? What trash is Rome? What rubbish and what
00:22:23awful, when it serves for the base matter to illuminate so vile a thing as Caesar?
00:22:31But, O grief, where hast thou led me? I perhaps speak this before a willing bondman.
00:22:41You speak to Casca, and to such a man that is no fleering tell-tale, hold my hand.
00:22:54Be factious for redress of all these griefs,
00:22:57and I will set this foot of mine as far as who goes farthest. There's a bargain made.
00:23:03None are you, Casca. I have moved already some certain of the noblest-minded Romans
00:23:09to undergo with me an enterprise of honorable, dangerous consequence.
00:23:14Is that close awhile? Here comes one in haste.
00:23:17It is Cynna. I know him by his gait. He is a friend.
00:23:22Cynna, where hast you, sir, to find her to you?
00:23:26What's that? Tell us, Simba. No, it is Casca, one incorporate to our attempts.
00:23:30O fearful night is this, as two or three of us have seen strange sights.
00:23:36Am I not stateful? Tell me. Yes, you are.
00:23:38O Cassius, if you could but win the noble Brutus to our party, you can attempt.
00:23:46Good Cynna.
00:23:48Take this paper and look you lay it in the praetor's chair where Brutus may but find it.
00:23:50Throw this in at his window.
00:23:52Set this up with wax upon old Brutus' statue.
00:23:54All this done, repair it upon his porch.
00:23:56How will I?
00:23:58And so bestow these papers as you bid me.
00:24:00Do so.
00:24:02Come, Casca.
00:24:04You and I will yet our day see Brutus at his house.
00:24:06Three parts of him is ours,
00:24:08and the rest is yours.
00:24:10O Cassius,
00:24:12you and I will yet our day see Brutus at his house.
00:24:14Three parts of him is ours,
00:24:17and the rest is yours.
00:24:19Three parts of him is ours already,
00:24:21and the man entire upon the next encounter
00:24:23yields him ours.
00:24:29It must be by his death.
00:24:31And for my part,
00:24:33I know no personal cause to spurn at him.
00:24:39He would be crowned.
00:24:41How that might change his nature,
00:24:43there is the question.
00:24:45It is the bright day
00:24:47that brings forth the adder,
00:24:49and that craves weary walking.
00:24:51The taper burneth
00:24:53in your closet, sir.
00:24:55Searching the window for a flint,
00:24:57I found this paper thus sealed up.
00:24:59I am sure it did not light there when I went to bed.
00:25:01We'll get thee to bed again.
00:25:03It is not day.
00:25:05Is not tomorrow, boy,
00:25:07the ides of March?
00:25:09I know not, sir.
00:25:15Brutus, thou sleep'st.
00:25:17Awake, and see thyself.
00:25:23Shall Rome
00:25:25stand under one man's awe?
00:25:29What?
00:25:31Rome?
00:25:35Speak,
00:25:37thou sleep'st,
00:25:39awake,
00:25:41and see thyself.
00:25:45Speak,
00:25:47strike,
00:25:51redress.
00:25:57O Rome, I make thee promise,
00:25:59thou shalt receive thy full petition
00:26:01at the hand of Brutus.
00:26:07They are the faction.
00:26:11O conspiracy!
00:26:15I think
00:26:17we are too bold upon your rest
00:26:19good morrow, Brutus.
00:26:21Do we
00:26:23trouble you?
00:26:25I have been up this hour awake all night.
00:26:27Know I
00:26:29these men that come along with you?
00:26:31Yes, every man of them.
00:26:33And no man here but honours you.
00:26:35And every one doth wish you had
00:26:37but that opinion of yourself
00:26:39which every noble Roman bears of you.
00:26:41This is
00:26:43Trevernius.
00:26:45He is welcome hither.
00:26:49This Decius Brutus.
00:26:51He is welcome too.
00:26:54This Casca.
00:26:58This Cinna.
00:27:02And this
00:27:04Metellus somewhere.
00:27:06They are all welcome.
00:27:08They are all welcome.
00:27:13Shall I
00:27:15entreat a word?
00:27:31Here lies the east.
00:27:33Doth not the day break here?
00:27:35No.
00:27:37O pardon, so it doth.
00:27:40The ornery lines that fret the clouds
00:27:42are messengers of day.
00:27:44You shall confess that you are both
00:27:46deceived.
00:27:48Here
00:27:50as I point my sword
00:27:52the sun arises.
00:27:56Give me your hands all over
00:27:58one by one.
00:28:00And let us swear our resolution.
00:28:02No, not an oath.
00:28:04But our own cause to prick us to redress.
00:28:08What other bond and secret Romans
00:28:10that have spoke the word and will not falter?
00:28:12And what other oath than
00:28:14honesty to honesty engaged
00:28:16that this shall be?
00:28:20Or we will fall for it.
00:28:24Shall no man else be touched?
00:28:26But only Caesar.
00:28:28Decius well urged.
00:28:30I think it is not meet Mark Antony
00:28:32so well beloved of Caesar
00:28:34should outlive Caesar.
00:28:36We shall find of him a shrewd
00:28:38contriver. Let Antony
00:28:40and Caesar fall together.
00:28:42Our course will seem too bloody, Caius
00:28:44Cassius, to cut the head off and then
00:28:46hack the limbs like wrath in death
00:28:48and envy afterwards.
00:28:50For Antony is but a limb of Caesar.
00:28:52Let's be sacrifices
00:28:54but not butchers,
00:28:56Caius.
00:28:58We all stand up against
00:29:00the spirit of Caesar
00:29:02and in the spirit of men
00:29:04there is no blood.
00:29:06Oh,
00:29:08that we then could come by
00:29:10Caesar's spirit and not
00:29:12dismember Caesar.
00:29:14But alas,
00:29:16Caesar must bleed
00:29:18for it.
00:29:20And gentle friends,
00:29:22let's kill him boldly
00:29:24but not wrathfully.
00:29:26Let's carve him as a dish fit for the gods
00:29:29not hew him as a carcass
00:29:31fit for hounds.
00:29:33And for Mark Antony,
00:29:35think not of him.
00:29:37For he can do no more than Caesar's arm
00:29:39when Caesar's head is off.
00:29:41Yet I fear him.
00:29:43For in the engrafted love he bears to Caesar...
00:29:45Alas, good Cassius, do not think of him.
00:29:47If he loves Caesar, all he can do is to himself
00:29:49take thought and die
00:29:51for Caesar.
00:29:53And that were much he should, for he is given
00:29:55to sports, to wildness
00:29:57and much company.
00:29:59But it is doubtful yet
00:30:01whether Caesar will come forth
00:30:03today or now.
00:30:05For he is superstitious grown of late.
00:30:07Maybe these apparent prodigies
00:30:09the unaccustomed terror
00:30:11of this night
00:30:13and the persuasion of his augurers
00:30:15may hold him
00:30:17from the capital today.
00:30:19Never fear that.
00:30:21If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him.
00:30:23For he loves to hear
00:30:25that stones may be betrayed with trees
00:30:27and bears with glasses,
00:30:29elephants with holes, lions with toils
00:30:31and men with flatterers.
00:30:33But when I tell him he hates flatterers,
00:30:35he says he does, being then most flattered.
00:30:37Let me work.
00:30:39For I can give his humour the true bent
00:30:41and I will bring him to the capital.
00:30:43The morning comes upon us.
00:30:45We'll leave you, Brutus.
00:30:47And, friends, disperse yourselves.
00:30:49But all remember what you have said
00:30:51and show yourselves
00:30:53to the true rollers.
00:31:09Brutus, my lord.
00:31:11Portia, what mean you?
00:31:13Wherefore rise you now?
00:31:15It is not for your health
00:31:17thus to commit your weak condition
00:31:19to the raw cold morning.
00:31:21It is neither.
00:31:23You have ungently, Brutus,
00:31:25stowed from my bed.
00:31:29Dear my lord,
00:31:31make me acquainted with your cause of grief.
00:31:35I am not well in health, and that is all.
00:31:39Brutus is wise.
00:31:41And were he not in health,
00:31:43he would embrace the means to come by it.
00:31:47Why, so I do.
00:31:51Good Portia, go to bed.
00:31:58Is Brutus sick?
00:32:00And is it physical
00:32:02to walk unbraced
00:32:04and suck up the humours of the dank morning?
00:32:06What, Brutus sick?
00:32:10Will he steal out of his wholesome bed
00:32:12to dare the vile contagion
00:32:14of the night
00:32:16and tempt the roomy and unpurged air
00:32:18to add unto his sickness?
00:32:20Brutus,
00:32:22you have some sick offence
00:32:24within your mind
00:32:26which, by the right and virtue
00:32:28of my place, I ought to know.
00:32:32And upon my knees I charm you
00:32:34by my once-commended beauty,
00:32:38by all your vows of love,
00:32:40and that great vow
00:32:42which did incorporate and make us one
00:32:44that you unfold to me
00:32:46yourself, your half.
00:32:48Why, you are heavy.
00:32:50And what men to-night
00:32:52have had resort to you?
00:32:54For here have been some six or seven
00:32:56who did hide their faces even from darkness.
00:32:58Kneel not, gentle Portia.
00:33:00I should not kneel
00:33:02if you were gentle, Brutus.
00:33:08Within the bond of marriage,
00:33:10tell me, Brutus,
00:33:12is it accepted I should know
00:33:14no secrets that appertain to you?
00:33:16Am I your wife,
00:33:18but as it were in sort or limitation
00:33:20to keep with you at meals,
00:33:22comfort your bed, talk to you sometimes?
00:33:24Dwell I but in the suburbs
00:33:26of your good pleasure?
00:33:30If it be no more,
00:33:32Portia is Brutus Harlot,
00:33:34not his wife.
00:33:38You are my true and honourable wife,
00:33:40as dear to me
00:33:42as are the ruddy drops
00:33:44If this were true,
00:33:46then I should know the secret.
00:33:56I grant I am a woman,
00:33:58but withal a woman
00:34:00Lord Brutus took to wife.
00:34:02I grant I am a woman,
00:34:04but withal a woman
00:34:06well reputed,
00:34:08Cato's daughter.
00:34:10Think you I am no stronger
00:34:13than my sex being so fathered
00:34:15and so husbanded?
00:34:17Tell me your counsels.
00:34:19I will not disclose them.
00:34:23I have made strong proof
00:34:25of my constancy.
00:34:29O ye gods, render me worthy
00:34:31of this noble wife.
00:34:33By and by thy bosom shall partake
00:34:35the secrets of my heart.
00:34:43Caesar!
00:35:05Caesar, beware of Brutus.
00:35:07Take heed of Cassius.
00:35:09Come not near Casca.
00:35:11Have an eye for sinner, trust not to boney us.
00:35:14Well would tell a symbol.
00:35:16Odysseus Brutus loves thee not.
00:35:18Let us put one mind at all these men, and it is bent against Caesar.
00:35:29Beware the eyes of God!
00:35:33March!
00:35:35March!
00:35:37March!
00:35:39March!
00:35:41March!
00:35:43March!
00:35:45March!
00:35:47March!
00:36:03Nor heaven nor earth have been at peace to-night.
00:36:24Why saith Calpurnia in her sleep, cried out, Help, ho! they murder Caesar.
00:36:36Who's within, my lord?
00:36:40Go bid the priests do present sacrifice, And bring me their opinion of success.
00:36:45I will, my lord.
00:36:51What mean you, Caesar?
00:36:52Think you to walk forth?
00:36:55You shall not stir out of your house to-day.
00:36:59Caesar shall forth.
00:37:00The things that threaten me ne'er look but on my back.
00:37:04When they shall see the face of Caesar, they are vanishing.
00:37:08Caesar, I never stood on ceremonies, and now they frighten me.
00:37:14There is one within, besides the thing that we have heard and seen,
00:37:18Recounts most horrid sights seen by the watch.
00:37:22Warriors have whelped in the streets, and graves have yawned and heeded up their dead.
00:37:27Fierce fiery warriors fought upon the clouds, and ransomed spodrons in right form of war,
00:37:32Which drizzled blood upon the capital.
00:37:40Noise of battle hurtled in the air.
00:37:44Horses did neigh, and dying men did groan, And ghosts did shriek and squeal about the streets.
00:37:52O Caesar!
00:37:55These things are beyond all use, and I do fear them.
00:38:00What can be avoided whose end is purposed by the mighty gods?
00:38:04Yet Caesar shall go forth.
00:38:06For these predictions are to the world in general as to Caesar.
00:38:09When beggars die, there are no comets seen.
00:38:11The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.
00:38:15Cowards die many times before their deaths.
00:38:18The valiant never taste of death but once.
00:38:22All the wonders that I yet have heard,
00:38:25Seems to me most strange that men should fear.
00:38:29Seeing the death, a necessary end,
00:38:34Come when it will come.
00:38:42What say the augurers?
00:38:44They would not have you to stir forth today.
00:38:47Plucking the entrails of an offering forth, they could not find a heart within the beast.
00:38:53The gods do this in shame of cowardice.
00:38:56Caesar should be a beast without a heart if he should stay away today through fear.
00:39:01No, Caesar shall not.
00:39:03Danger knows full well that Caesar is more dangerous than he.
00:39:08We are two lions littered in one day,
00:39:11And I the elder and more terrible.
00:39:14Caesar shall go forth.
00:39:17Alas, my lord, your wisdom is consumed in confidence.
00:39:22Do not go forth today.
00:39:24Call it my fear that keeps you in the house and not your own.
00:39:29We'll send Mark Antony to the Senate House, and he shall say you are not well today.
00:39:34Let me upon my knee prevail in this.
00:39:38Mark Antony shall say I am not well.
00:39:41And for thy humour, I will stay at home.
00:39:46Here's Decius Brutus. He shall tell them, sir.
00:39:50Caesar, all hail.
00:39:52For more worthy, Caesar, I come to fetch you to the Senate House.
00:39:56And you have come in very happy time to bear my greetings to the senators
00:39:59and tell them that I will not come today.
00:40:02That I dare not is false, and that I dare not falser.
00:40:05I will not come today. Tell them so, Decius.
00:40:09Say he is sick.
00:40:11Shall Caesar send a lie?
00:40:13Have I in conquest stretched mine arm so far to be afeard to tell greybeards the truth?
00:40:18Decius, go tell them Caesar will not come.
00:40:21Most mighty Caesar, let me know some cause, lest I be laughed at when I tell them so.
00:40:26The cause is in my will. I will not come.
00:40:29That is enough to satisfy the Senate.
00:40:32But for your private satisfaction, because I love you, I will let you know.
00:40:39Calpurnia here, my wife, stays me at home.
00:40:42She dreamed tonight she saw my statue,
00:40:45which like a fountain with a hundred spouts did run pure blood.
00:40:50Many lusty Romans came, smiling, and to bathe their hands in it.
00:40:55And this does she apply for warnings and portents and evils imminent.
00:40:59And on her knee hath begged that I will stay at home today.
00:41:07This dream is all a misinterpreted.
00:41:10It was a vision fair and fortunate.
00:41:13Your statue, spouting blood in many pipes, in which so many smiling Romans bathed,
00:41:18signifies that from you great Rome shall suck reviving blood,
00:41:22and that great men shall press for tinctures, stains, relics, and cognizance.
00:41:27This, my Calpurnia's dream, is signified.
00:41:30In this way have you well expounded it?
00:41:34I have, when you have heard what I can say.
00:41:39And know it now.
00:41:41The Senate have concluded to give this day a crown to mighty Caesar.
00:41:47If you shall send them word you will not come, their minds may change.
00:41:51Besides, it were a mark apt to be rendered for someone to say,
00:41:55Break up the Senate till another time, when Caesar's wife shall meet with better dreams.
00:42:00If Caesar hide himself, shall they not whisper, Lo, Caesar is afraid?
00:42:08How foolish do your fears seem now, Calpurnia.
00:42:12I am ashamed I did yield.
00:42:16Give me my rope, or I will go.
00:42:26And look where Publius has come to fetch me.
00:42:29Good morrow, Caesar.
00:42:31For Prutus, you stirred so early too.
00:42:34Good morrow, Casca.
00:42:36Now, sinner, what will tell us?
00:42:39Now, Trebonius, see Antony,
00:42:43That rebels long nights is notwithstanding up.
00:42:47Good morrow, Antony.
00:42:49Good morrow, noble Caesar.
00:42:51Good friends, go in and taste some wine with me.
00:42:56We, like friends, will straightway go together.
00:43:07Caesar, beware of Prutus.
00:43:10Take heed of Cassius.
00:43:12Come not near Casca.
00:43:14Have an eye to sinner. Trust not Trebonius.
00:43:17Hark well, and tell us Simba.
00:43:19Decius Prutus loves thee not.
00:43:23The ides of March are come.
00:43:26Ay, Caesar, but not gone.
00:43:53Caesar! Caesar!
00:44:01Hail, Caesar!
00:44:04Read this schedule.
00:44:06Verniest, this is I, who will read at your best pleasure.
00:44:09This his humble suit.
00:44:10O, Caesar, read mine first, for my suit touches Caesar nearer.
00:44:14Read it, great Caesar.
00:44:16What touches us ourselves shall be last served.
00:44:19Delay not, Caesar. Read it instantly.
00:44:21What, is the fellow mad?
00:44:23I urge you, your petitions in the street.
00:44:26Come to the Capitol.
00:44:32I wish your enterprise today may thrive.
00:44:37What enterprise, Popilius?
00:44:43Pay well.
00:44:51What said Popilius Lena?
00:44:53He wished today our enterprise might thrive.
00:44:56I fear our purposes discover it.
00:44:58Look how he makes to Caesar. Mark him.
00:45:02Casca be certain, for we fear prevention.
00:45:04Prutus, what shall be done?
00:45:06If this be known, Cassius or Caesar never shall turn back, for I will slay myself.
00:45:10Cassius, be constant.
00:45:12Popilius Lena speaks not of our purposes.
00:45:14For look, he smiles, and Caesar doth not change.
00:45:22Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!
00:45:26Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!
00:45:30Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!
00:45:34Caesar!
00:45:52Trebonius knows his time.
00:45:54For look you, Brutus. He draws Mark Antony out of the way.
00:46:06Where is Metellus Cimber?
00:46:08Let him go and present a preparing suit to Caesar.
00:46:10He is addressed.
00:46:12Preston air in a second.
00:46:14Preston air in a second.
00:46:19Casca, you are the first that bears your hand.
00:46:38Are we all ready?
00:46:41What is now amiss that Caesar and his senate must address?
00:46:45Most high, most mighty, and most recent Caesar.
00:46:48Metellus Cimber throws before thy seat an humble heart.
00:46:52I must prevent thee, Cimber.
00:46:54These couchings and these lowly courtesies might fire the blood of ordinary men,
00:46:59and turn preordinance and first decree into the law of children.
00:47:02Be not fond to think that Caesar bears such rebel blood
00:47:07that will be thawed from the true quality with that which melteth fools.
00:47:11I mean sweet words, low crooked courtesies, and base spaniel forming.
00:47:18Thy brother by decree is banished.
00:47:21If thou dost bend and pray and fawn for him, I spurn thee like a cur out of my way.
00:47:25No, Caesar doth not wrong, nor without cause will he be satisfied.
00:47:31Is there no voice more worthy than my own to sound more sweetly in great Caesar's ear
00:47:36for the repealing of my banished brother?
00:47:41I kiss thy hand, but not in flattery, Caesar,
00:47:45desiring thee that Publius Cimber may have an immediate freedom of repeal.
00:47:51What? Brutus?
00:47:54Pardon, Caesar, Caesar, pardon.
00:47:57As low as to thy foot doth Cassius fall to beg enfranchisement for Publius Cimber.
00:48:03I could be well moved if I were as you.
00:48:06If I could pray to move, prayers would move me.
00:48:10But I am constant as the northern star,
00:48:13of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.
00:48:17The skies are painted with unnumbered stars,
00:48:20they are all fire, and every one doth shine.
00:48:23But there's but one in all doth hold his place.
00:48:26So in the world, it is furnished well with men,
00:48:29and men are flesh and blood and apprehensive.
00:48:32Yet in the number I do know but one
00:48:34that unassailable holds on his rank unshaped of motion,
00:48:38and that I am he.
00:48:40Let me a little show it, even in this,
00:48:42that I am constant Cimber should be banished,
00:48:45and constant to remain,
00:48:47that I am constant Cimber should be banished,
00:48:49and constant to remain, to keep himself.
00:48:51O Caesar!
00:48:52Hence, wilt thou lift up Olympus?
00:48:54Great Caesar!
00:48:56Doth not Brutus bootless kneel?
00:49:00Splats hands for me!
00:49:47Brutus!
00:50:03Quaest tu, Brutus?
00:50:18Brutus!
00:50:30Then fall, Caesar.
00:50:43Liberty! Freedom!
00:50:45Tyranny's dead.
00:50:46Run hence! Proclaim!
00:50:48Cry it about the streets!
00:50:49Sum to the common pulpits, and cry out,
00:50:52Liberty! Freedom! And enfranchisement!
00:50:57People and senators, be not afraid.
00:51:03Silence!
00:51:05Stand still!
00:51:07Admissions doth dispate.
00:51:09Go to the pulpit, Brutus.
00:51:11And Cassius, too.
00:51:12Stand fast together, lest some friends of Caesar's
00:51:14talk out of standing.
00:51:16Publius.
00:51:17Good cheer.
00:51:18There is no harm intended to your person,
00:51:20nor to no woman else.
00:51:21So tell them, Publius.
00:51:22And leave us, Publius,
00:51:23lest that the people rushing on us
00:51:24should do your aid somehow.
00:51:25Do so.
00:51:26And let no man abide this deed,
00:51:28but we the doers.
00:51:32Where is Antony?
00:51:33Fled to his house amazed.
00:51:34Men, wise, and children, stare, cry out, and run,
00:51:37as if it were doomsday.
00:51:39Stoop, Romans.
00:51:41Stoop.
00:51:43And let us bathe our hands in Caesar's blood.
00:51:46Then walk we forth even to the marketplace,
00:51:49and waving our red weapons o'er our heads,
00:51:51let's all cry, Peace, Freedom, and Liberty.
00:51:56Stoop, then, and wash.
00:52:09How many ages hence
00:52:11shall this our lofty seat be acted on?
00:52:15States unborn, accents yet unknown.
00:52:19How many times shall Caesar bleed in sport,
00:52:22that now on Pompey's basis
00:52:24lies along no worthier than the dust?
00:52:27So oft as that shall be,
00:52:29so often shall the knot of us be called
00:52:31the men who gave that country its name.
00:52:34So often shall the knot of us be called
00:52:36the men who gave that country liberty.
00:52:39Well, shall we forth?
00:52:41Ay, every man away.
00:52:42Brutus shall lead, and we will grace his heels
00:52:45with the most boldest and best hearts of Rome.
00:52:50Soft, who comes here?
00:52:52Welcome, Mark Antony.
00:53:23O mighty Caesar,
00:53:26dost thou lie so low?
00:53:29Are all thy conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils
00:53:34shrunk to this little measure?
00:53:39Fare thee well.
00:53:53I know not, gentlemen, what you intend.
00:53:57Who else must be led blood?
00:53:59Who else is rank?
00:54:00If I myself, there is no hour so fit as Caesar's death hour,
00:54:03nor no instrument of half that worth
00:54:05as those your swords made rich
00:54:07with the most noble blood of all this world.
00:54:10I do beseech thee, if you bear me hard,
00:54:12now, whilst your purpled hands do reek and smoke,
00:54:15fulfill your pleasure.
00:54:17If I live a thousand years,
00:54:18I shall not find myself so apt to die.
00:54:21No place will please me so.
00:54:23No mean of death is here by Caesar
00:54:25and by you, cut off,
00:54:27the choice and master spirits of the age.
00:54:31O Antony, beg not your death of us,
00:54:34though now we must appear bloody and cruel,
00:54:39as by our hands,
00:54:40and this our present act, you see, we do,
00:54:44yet see you but our hands,
00:54:45and this the bleeding business they have done.
00:54:49Our hearts, you see not.
00:54:52They are pitiful.
00:54:54For your part,
00:54:56to you our swords have leaden points, Mark Antony.
00:55:00Your voice shall be as strong as any man's
00:55:03in the disposing of new dignities.
00:55:06Only be patient till we have appeased the multitude
00:55:09beside themselves with fear,
00:55:10and then we will deliver you the cause
00:55:12why I, that did love Caesar when I struck him,
00:55:15have thus proceeded.
00:55:19I doubt not of your wisdom.
00:55:24Let each man render me his bloody hand.
00:55:32First, Marcus Brutus, will I shake with you.
00:55:39Next, Caius Cassius, do I take your hand.
00:55:49Caesar, if thy spirit look upon us now,
00:55:53shall it not grieve thee dearer than thy death
00:55:55to see thy Antony making his peace,
00:55:58shaking the bloody fingers of thy foes,
00:56:02most noble in the presence of thy corpse?
00:56:10Mark Antony.
00:56:13Pardon me, Caius Cassius.
00:56:15Will you be pricked in number of our friends,
00:56:18or shall we honour not depend on you?
00:56:23Friends have I with you all, and love you all,
00:56:26upon this hope that you shall give me reasons
00:56:29why and wherein Caesar was dangerous,
00:56:32or else this were a savage spectacle.
00:56:37Our reasons are so full of good regard
00:56:39that were you, Antony, the son of Caesar,
00:56:42you should be satisfied.
00:56:44That's all I seek.
00:56:46And I'm moreover suitor that I may produce his body
00:56:49in the marketplace,
00:56:51and in the pulpit he becomes a friend
00:56:54and speak in the order of his funeral.
00:56:58You shall, Mark Antony.
00:57:01Brutus, away with you.
00:57:03No, no, what you do,
00:57:05do not consent that Antony speak in his funeral.
00:57:08No, do not consent that Antony speak in his funeral.
00:57:11Not how much the people may be moved
00:57:13by that which he will utter.
00:57:14I beg your pardon.
00:57:16I will myself into the pulpit first,
00:57:19show the reason of our Caesar's death.
00:57:21What Antony shall speak I will protest he does
00:57:23by leave and by permission.
00:57:26That we are contented Caesar shall have all true rights
00:57:28in lawful settlement
00:57:31will advantage more than do us wrong.
00:57:34I know not what may befall.
00:57:36I like it not.
00:57:42Mark Antony,
00:57:44here take you Caesar's body.
00:57:47You shall not in your funeral speech blame us,
00:57:51but speak all good you can devise of Caesar
00:57:54and say you do it by our permission.
00:57:56Else shall you not have any hand at all about his funeral.
00:57:59And you shall speak in the same pulpit
00:58:02where to I am going after my speech is ended.
00:58:06Be it so. I do desire no more.
00:58:11Prepare the body then and follow us.
00:58:33Oh, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth,
00:58:37that I am meek and gentle with these butchers.
00:58:45Thou art the ruin of the noblest man
00:58:48that ever lived in the tide of times.
00:58:52Thou art the ruin of the noblest man
00:58:55that ever lived in the tide of times.
00:59:06Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood.
00:59:13Over thy wounds now do I prophesy.
00:59:17A curse shall light upon the limbs of men
00:59:20domestic fury and fierce civil strife
00:59:23shall cumber all the parts of Italy.
00:59:25Blood and destruction shall be so in use
00:59:28and dreadful objects so familiar
00:59:30that mothers shall but smile when they behold
00:59:32their infants quartered with the hand of war.
00:59:37And Caesar's spirit ranging for revenge
00:59:40with Atte by his side come hot from hell
00:59:43shall in these confines with a monarch's voice cry havoc.
00:59:51Let slip the dogs of war.
00:59:55Let slip the dogs of war.
01:00:19You, sir, I tell you, Caesar do you not?
01:00:21I do, Marcus.
01:00:22Caesar did right for him to come to Rome.
01:00:24He did receive his letters and is coming.
01:00:27And bid me say to you by word of mouth.
01:00:37O Caesar.
01:00:39Passion I see is catching.
01:00:43Is your master coming?
01:00:45He lies this night within seven leagues of Rome.
01:00:48Here's a mourning Rome, a dangerous Rome.
01:00:51No Rome of safety for Octavius yet.
01:00:54Right, Ensign, tell him so.
01:00:56Yes, stay awhile.
01:00:58Till I've borne this corpse into the marketplace.
01:01:02And tried there how the people take
01:01:04the cruel issue of these bloody men.
01:01:09We will be satisfied.
01:01:10We shall be satisfied.
01:01:12And follow me.
01:01:14And give me audience, friends.
01:01:18Cassius.
01:01:19Cassius.
01:01:21Go you into the other street and part the numbers.
01:01:24Those that will hear me speak, let them stay here.
01:01:28And public reason shall be rendered of Caesar's death.
01:01:39The noble Brutus is ascended.
01:01:42Silence.
01:01:50Be patient till the last.
01:02:02Romans.
01:02:04Countrymen.
01:02:06And lovers.
01:02:09Hear me for my cause and be silent that you may hear.
01:02:15Believe me for mine honor.
01:02:17And have respect for mine honor that you may believe.
01:02:22Censure me in your wisdom.
01:02:25And awake your senses that you may the better judge.
01:02:31If there be any in this assembly,
01:02:34any dear friend of Caesar,
01:02:37to him I say that Brutus' love to Caesar was no less than his.
01:02:41If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar,
01:02:46this is my answer.
01:02:49Not that I love Caesar less,
01:02:52but that I love Rome more.
01:02:56Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves,
01:03:02or that Caesar were dead to live all free men?
01:03:05As Caesar loved me,
01:03:08I weep for him.
01:03:11As he was fortunate, I rejoice at it.
01:03:14As he was valiant, I honor him.
01:03:19But as he was ambitious,
01:03:24I suffer for him.
01:03:28And as he died,
01:03:31I die for him.
01:03:33I slew him.
01:03:39There is tears for his love,
01:03:44joy for his fortune,
01:03:47honor for his valor,
01:03:49and death for his ambition.
01:03:56Who is here so base that would be a bondman?
01:03:59If any, speak!
01:04:01For him have I offended.
01:04:05Who is here so rude that would not be a Roman?
01:04:08If any, speak!
01:04:10For him have I offended.
01:04:14Who is here so vile that will not love his country?
01:04:19If any, speak!
01:04:23For him have I offended.
01:04:30I pause for a reply.
01:04:37None, Brutus! None! None! None!
01:04:43Then none have I offended.
01:04:49Here comes his body,
01:04:51mourned by Mark Antony,
01:04:54who, though he had no hand in Caesar's death,
01:04:58shall receive the benefit of his dying.
01:05:01The place in the commonwealth,
01:05:04as which of you shall not.
01:05:10With this I depart,
01:05:13that as I slew my best lover for the good of Rome,
01:05:18I have the same dagger for myself,
01:05:21when it shall please my country
01:05:24to need my death.
01:05:27Live, Brutus!
01:05:29Live, Brutus!
01:05:31Give him a statue of his ancestors!
01:05:34Let him be Caesar!
01:05:36Caesar's better parts shall be crowned in Brutus!
01:05:39We'll bring him to his house with shouts and clamors!
01:05:42My countrymen!
01:05:44Peace!
01:05:46Silence! Peace!
01:05:48Brutus speaks!
01:05:50Peace!
01:05:52Brutus speaks!
01:05:54Brutus speaks!
01:05:55Peace!
01:05:58Good countrymen,
01:06:00let me depart alone,
01:06:03and for my sake
01:06:05stay here with Antony
01:06:07to grace to Caesar's corpse
01:06:10and grace his speech tending to Caesar's glories,
01:06:14which Antony, by our permission,
01:06:17is allowed to make.
01:06:19I do entreat you,
01:06:21not a man depart,
01:06:22save I alone
01:06:24till Antony have spoke.
01:06:28Stay hold!
01:06:30We'll hear Mark Antony!
01:06:32We'll hear him!
01:06:34Noble Antony, go on!
01:06:36For Brutus' sake, I am beholden to you.
01:06:39What does he say of Brutus?
01:06:41He says, for Brutus' sake,
01:06:43he finds himself beholding to us all.
01:06:45To a Brutus be no harm, a Brutus here!
01:06:47This Caesar was a tyrant!
01:06:49That certain!
01:06:50We have blasted the Romans rid of him!
01:06:52You gentle Romans!
01:06:54Peace! Let us hear him!
01:06:57Friends,
01:07:00Romans,
01:07:02countrymen,
01:07:04lend me your ears.
01:07:06I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
01:07:09The evil that men do lives after them.
01:07:12The good is often turret with their bones.
01:07:15So let it be with Caesar!
01:07:21The noble Brutus
01:07:23hath told you Caesar was ambitious.
01:07:26If it were so, it was a grievous fault.
01:07:30Grievously hath Caesar answered it.
01:07:36Here,
01:07:38under leave of Brutus and the rest,
01:07:41for Brutus is an honourable man.
01:07:43Why?
01:07:45So are they all,
01:07:47all honourable men.
01:07:48Come I to speak
01:07:51in Caesar's funeral.
01:07:56He was my friend,
01:07:58faithful and just to me.
01:08:03But Brutus says he was ambitious.
01:08:07And Brutus
01:08:09is an honourable man.
01:08:13He hath brought many captives home to Rome,
01:08:15whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.
01:08:18Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?
01:08:21When that the poor have cried,
01:08:23Caesar hath wept.
01:08:25Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
01:08:28Yet Brutus says he was ambitious.
01:08:31And Brutus is an honourable man.
01:08:34You all did see that on the Lupercol
01:08:36I thrice presented him a kingly crown
01:08:38which he did thrice refuse.
01:08:40Was this ambition?
01:08:42Yet Brutus
01:08:43says he was ambitious
01:08:45and sure
01:08:47he is an honourable man.
01:08:50I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,
01:08:53but here I am to speak what I do know.
01:08:55You all did love him once,
01:08:57not without cause.
01:08:59What cause withholds you then to mourn for him?
01:09:04Judgment thou art fled to brutish beasts
01:09:07and men have lost their reason.
01:09:10Bear with me.
01:09:13My heart is there with Caesar
01:09:16and I must pause till it come back to me.
01:09:29He thinks there is much reason in his sayings
01:09:32if thou consider rightly of the matter.
01:09:34Caesar has said that
01:09:35Caesar has had a great wrong.
01:09:37Has he, masters?
01:09:39I fear the will of worse come in his place.
01:09:41Marked he his words.
01:09:43He would not take the crown.
01:09:45Therefore he certainly was not ambitious.
01:09:47There is not a nobler man in Rome than Anthony.
01:09:50But yesterday the word of Caesar
01:09:53might have stood against the world.
01:09:56Now lies he there
01:09:58and none so poor to do him reverence.
01:10:02O masters,
01:10:04if I were disposed to stir your hearts and minds
01:10:07to mutiny and rage,
01:10:11I should do brutish wrong
01:10:13and cacheous wrong.
01:10:15Who you all know are honourable men.
01:10:17I will not do them wrong.
01:10:19I rather choose to wrong the dead,
01:10:21to wrong myself and you
01:10:23than I would wrong such honourable men.
01:10:26I will not do them wrong.
01:10:28I will not do them wrong.
01:10:29Honourable men.
01:10:32But here's a parchment
01:10:34for the seal of Caesar.
01:10:36I found it in his closet.
01:10:39It is his will.
01:10:41Let but the commons hear this testament,
01:10:44which, pardon me, I do not mean to read.
01:10:47They would go and kiss dead Caesar's wounds
01:10:50and dip their napkins in his sacred blood.
01:10:52Ye, beg a hair of him for memory
01:10:54and, dying, mention it within their will.
01:10:56The will.
01:11:06Have patience, gentle friends.
01:11:08I must not read it.
01:11:10It is not me to know how Caesar loved you.
01:11:13You are not wood, you are not stones, but men.
01:11:16And being men, hearing the will of Caesar,
01:11:18it will inflame you, it will make you mad.
01:11:20It is good you know not
01:11:22that you are his heirs.
01:11:24For if you should,
01:11:26read the will.
01:11:28If you be patient,
01:11:30will you stay a while?
01:11:32I have o'ershot myself to tell you of it.
01:11:34I fear I wrong the honourable men
01:11:36whose daggers have stabbed Caesar.
01:11:38I do fear it.
01:11:40They were traitors.
01:11:47You will compel me, then, to read the will?
01:11:50The will.
01:11:53Then make a ring about the corpse of Caesar
01:11:56and let me show you him that made the will.
01:11:59Shall I descend?
01:12:01And will you give me leave?
01:12:03Come down!
01:12:12Stand far off.
01:12:22You all do know this mantle.
01:12:23I remember the first time ever Caesar put it on.
01:12:27It was on a summer's evening in his tent.
01:12:30That day he overcame the Novii.
01:12:36Look.
01:12:38In this place ran Cassius' dagger through.
01:12:40Oh, see what a rent the envious Casca made.
01:12:45Through here, the well-beloved Brutus stabbed.
01:12:48As he plucked his cursed steel away,
01:12:50Marco, the blood of Caesar, followed it.
01:12:52For Brutus, as you know, was Caesar's angel.
01:12:55Giorgio, ye gods, how dearly Caesar loved him.
01:12:59Oh, this was the most unkindest cut of all.
01:13:02But when the noble Caesar saw him stabbed,
01:13:05in gratitude more strong than traitor's arms,
01:13:08quite vanquished him,
01:13:10then burst his mighty heart
01:13:12and in his mantle muffled his blood.
01:13:13Even at the base of Pompey's statue,
01:13:15which all the while ran blood,
01:13:17great Caesar fell.
01:13:19Oh, what a fall was there, my countrymen.
01:13:22And I and you and all of us fell down
01:13:24whilst bloody treason flourished over us.
01:13:27Kind soul, heart, weep you
01:13:30when you but behold our Caesar's vesture wounded.
01:13:33Look, you're here.
01:13:35Oh.
01:13:37Oh.
01:13:39Oh.
01:13:41Oh.
01:13:43Here is himself,
01:13:45marred, as you see, with traitors.
01:13:47Oh, piteous spectacle.
01:13:49Oh, noble Caesar.
01:13:51Traitor.
01:13:53We will die with him.
01:13:55We will die with him.
01:13:57We friends.
01:13:59Let me not stir you up
01:14:01to such a sudden flood of mutiny.
01:14:03They that have done this deed are honourable.
01:14:06What private griefs they have,
01:14:08alas, I know not that made them do it.
01:14:10They are wise and honourable
01:14:11and will no doubt with reasons answer you.
01:14:15I come not, friends,
01:14:17to steal away your hearts.
01:14:19I am no orator,
01:14:21as Brutus is,
01:14:23but as you know me all,
01:14:25a plain blunt man
01:14:27that loved my friend.
01:14:29And that they know full well
01:14:31that gave me public leave to speak of him.
01:14:33For I have neither wit,
01:14:35nor words,
01:14:37nor power of speech to stir men's blood.
01:14:38I only speak right on.
01:14:40I tell you that
01:14:42which you yourselves do know.
01:14:44Show you sweet Caesar's wounds,
01:14:46poor, poor dumb mouths,
01:14:48and bid them speak for me.
01:14:50But were I Brutus,
01:14:52and Brutus, Antony,
01:14:54e'er were an Antony
01:14:56would ruffle up your spirits
01:14:58and put a tongue
01:15:00in every wound of Caesar's
01:15:02that should move the stones of Rome
01:15:04to rise and mutiny.
01:15:06Can't hear me, countrymen.
01:15:08Can't hear me speak.
01:15:10Why, friends, you go to do
01:15:12you know not what?
01:15:14Wherein hath Caesar thus
01:15:16deserved your love?
01:15:18Alas, you know not.
01:15:20I must tell you then.
01:15:22You have forgot the will
01:15:24I told you of.
01:15:26Here is the will.
01:15:28Here is the will.
01:15:30Here is the will.
01:15:32Here is the will.
01:15:33Here is the will.
01:15:35And under Caesar's seal
01:15:38to every Roman citizen he gives,
01:15:40to every several man,
01:15:43seventy-five drachmas.
01:15:50Moreover,
01:15:52he hath left you all his walks,
01:15:54his private arbors,
01:15:56and new-planted orchards
01:15:58on this side Tiber.
01:16:00He hath left them you
01:16:01and to your heirs forever
01:16:03common pleasures to walk abroad
01:16:05and recreate yourselves.
01:16:07Here was a Caesar
01:16:09when come such another.
01:16:11No!
01:16:13No!
01:16:15No!
01:16:17Come away!
01:16:19Come away!
01:16:21Come away!
01:16:23Come away!
01:16:31Come away!
01:16:33Come away!
01:16:35Come away!
01:16:37Come away!
01:16:39Come away!
01:16:41Come away!
01:16:43Come away!
01:16:45Come away!
01:16:46Come away!
01:17:17Now let it work.
01:17:20Mischief,
01:17:22thou art afoot.
01:17:24Take thou what course thou wilt.
01:17:30How now, fellow?
01:17:32Sir, Octavius has already come to Rome.
01:17:34Where is he now?
01:17:36He endeavours at Caesar's house.
01:17:38He comes upon a wish.
01:17:41Fortune is merry,
01:17:42and in this mood
01:17:44will give us anything.
01:17:46I heard him say Brutus and Cassius
01:17:48are red like madmen
01:17:50through the gates of Rome.
01:17:52They're like their heads
01:17:54on notice of the people.
01:17:56How I had moved them!
01:17:58Fire!
01:18:00Fire!
01:18:02Flames!
01:18:04Fire!
01:18:06To Brutus!
01:18:08To Cassius!
01:18:10Burn all!
01:18:12Go!
01:18:28These many then shall die.
01:18:30The men's are bricked.
01:18:35Your brother too must die.
01:18:37Consent you, Lepidus?
01:18:39I do consent.
01:18:40Brick him down, Antony.
01:18:42Upon condition Publius shall not live,
01:18:45who is your sister's son, Mark Antony.
01:18:48He shall not live.
01:18:50Look.
01:18:52To spot thy death.
01:18:54Brutus and Cassius are levying powers.
01:18:56We must straight make head.
01:18:58Therefore let our alliance be combined,
01:19:00our best friends made,
01:19:02and our means stretched.
01:19:04And let us presently go sit in council.
01:19:06Let us do so.
01:19:08For we are at the stake
01:19:10and bade about with many enemies.
01:19:13And some that smile
01:19:15have in their hearts, I fear, millions of mischiefs.
01:19:17Lepidus,
01:19:19do you fetch Caesar's will?
01:19:21We shall determine how to cut off
01:19:23some charge and legacies.
01:19:26How shall I find you here?
01:19:28Here or at the capital.
01:19:30This is a slight unmeritable man
01:19:33meet to be sent on errands.
01:19:37Is it fit the threefold world divided,
01:19:40he should stand one of the three to share it.
01:19:43He's a tried and valiant soldier.
01:19:47So is my horse, Octavius.
01:20:00Most noble Brutus, you have done me wrong.
01:20:02Judge me, you God's wrong, I mine enemies?
01:20:04And if not so, how should I rule?
01:20:06I shall rule.
01:20:08I shall rule.
01:20:10I shall rule.
01:20:12I shall rule.
01:20:14I shall rule.
01:20:16I shall rule.
01:20:18I shall rule.
01:20:20I shall rule.
01:20:22I shall rule.
01:20:24I shall rule.
01:20:26I shall rule.
01:20:27I shall rule.
01:20:29I shall rule.
01:20:31I shall rule.
01:20:33I shall rule.
01:20:35I shall rule.
01:20:37I shall rule.
01:20:39I shall rule.
01:20:41I shall rule.
01:20:43I shall rule.
01:20:45I shall rule.
01:20:47I shall rule.
01:20:49I shall rule.
01:20:51I shall rule.
01:20:53I shall rule.
01:20:55I shall rule.
01:20:57You have condemned and noted Lucius Pella for taking bribes here of the Sardians.
01:21:01Were in my letters, preying on his side because I knew the man was slighted off.
01:21:05You wronged yourself to write in such a case.
01:21:08In such a time as this it is not meet that every nice offense should bear his comment.
01:21:14Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm
01:21:20to sell and march your offices for gold to undeservers.
01:21:23I an itching palm?
01:21:24You know that you are Brutus who speaks this, or by the gods, this speech where else you'll last.
01:21:29The name of Cassius honors this corruption and chastisement that therefore hide his head.
01:21:34Chastisement?
01:21:36Remember March. The Ides of March, remember.
01:21:39Did not great Julius bleed for justice' sake?
01:21:42What shall one of us that struck the foremost man of all this world
01:21:46contaminate our fingers with base bribes
01:21:49and sell the mighty space of our large honors for so much trash as may be grasped thus?
01:21:55I'd rather be a dog and bathe the moon than such a Roman.
01:22:00Brutus, bait not me. I'll not endure it.
01:22:03You forget yourself to hedge me in.
01:22:05I'm a soldier, I, older in practice, abler than yourself to make conditions.
01:22:09Go to, you are not.
01:22:11I am.
01:22:12I say you are not.
01:22:13Urge me no more.
01:22:15I shall forget myself.
01:22:16Mind upon your health.
01:22:17Tempt me no farther.
01:22:18Away, slight man.
01:22:19Is possible.
01:22:20Hear me, for I will speak.
01:22:22Must I give way and room to your rash collar?
01:22:25Shall I be frightened when a madman stares?
01:22:27Holy gods, chief gods, must I endure all this?
01:22:30All this, I more.
01:22:32Fret till your proud heart break.
01:22:34Go show your slaves how choleric you are and make your bondmen tremble.
01:22:38Must I budge?
01:22:39Must I observe you?
01:22:41Must I stand and crouch under your testy humor?
01:22:43By the gods, you shall digest the venom of your spleen, though it do split you.
01:22:47For on this day forth, I'll use you for my mirth.
01:22:50Yea, my laughter when you are wasp.
01:22:52Easy, come to this.
01:22:54You say you are a better soldier.
01:22:57Let it appear so.
01:22:59Make your vaunting true and it shall please me well.
01:23:01For mine own part, I shall be glad to learn of noble men.
01:23:05You wrong me every way.
01:23:07You wrong me, Brutus.
01:23:09I said an elder soldier, not a better.
01:23:11Did I say better?
01:23:12I cannot.
01:23:14When Caesar lived, he durst not thus have moved me.
01:23:17Peace, peace, you durst not so have tempted him.
01:23:19I durst not?
01:23:21No.
01:23:22Well, I durst not tempt him.
01:23:24For your life, you durst not.
01:23:26Do not presume too much upon my love.
01:23:28I may do that, I shall be sorry for.
01:23:30You have done that, you should be sorry for.
01:23:32I did send to you for gold to pay my legions, which you denied me.
01:23:35Was that done like Cassius?
01:23:37Should I have answered Caius Cassius so?
01:23:38When Marcus Brutus grows so covetous
01:23:40to lock such rascal counters from his friends,
01:23:43be ready, gods, with all your thunderbolts,
01:23:45dash him to pieces.
01:23:47I denied you not.
01:23:48You did?
01:23:49I did not.
01:23:51He was but a fool that brought my answer back.
01:23:56Brutus hath writhed my heart.
01:23:59A friend should bear his friend's infirmities,
01:24:02but Brutus makes mine greater than they are.
01:24:04I do not, till you practise them on me.
01:24:06You love me not.
01:24:08I do not like your faults.
01:24:10A friendly eye could never see such faults.
01:24:12A flatterer's would not,
01:24:14though they do appear as huge as high Olympus.
01:24:16Come, Antony, and young Octavius, come.
01:24:19Revenge yourselves alone on Cassius,
01:24:21for Cassius is a weary of the world.
01:24:24Hated by one he loves,
01:24:26braved by his brother,
01:24:28checked like a bunman,
01:24:30all his faults observed,
01:24:32set in a notebook,
01:24:34learned, and conned by rope to cast into my teeth.
01:24:38Now I could weep my spirit from my eyes.
01:24:51There is my backer,
01:24:54and here my naked breast,
01:24:56within a heart dearer than Brutus' mine,
01:24:58richer than gold.
01:25:00If that thou be'st a Roman, take it forth.
01:25:02I that denied thee gold will give my heart.
01:25:05Strike as thou didst at Caesar,
01:25:06for I know when thou didst hate him worse,
01:25:08thou lovest him better than ever thou lovest Cassius.
01:25:19Sheathe thy dagger.
01:25:21Be angry when you will.
01:25:23It shall have scope.
01:25:29O Cassius,
01:25:31you are yoked with a lamb
01:25:33that carries anger
01:25:34as the flint bears fire,
01:25:36who, much enforced,
01:25:38shows a hasty spark,
01:25:41and straight is cold again.
01:25:48Cassius lived to be but
01:25:50mirth and laughter to his Brutus,
01:25:54when grief and blood ill-tempered vexes him.
01:25:58When I spoke that,
01:26:00I was ill-tempered too.
01:26:02Do you confess so much?
01:26:07Yeah.
01:26:09And my heart too.
01:26:21Lucilius and Titinius,
01:26:23bid the commanders prepare
01:26:25to lodge their companies tonight.
01:26:27And come yourselves,
01:26:29and bring Messala with you immediately to us.
01:26:31Cassius, a bowl of wine.
01:26:42I did not think you could have been so angry.
01:26:46O Cassius, I am sick of many griefs.
01:26:51Portia is dead.
01:26:55Portia?
01:26:57She is dead.
01:26:58How steeped I killed him
01:27:00when I crossed you so.
01:27:04O insupportable and touching loss.
01:27:10Upon what sickness?
01:27:12Impatient of my absence
01:27:14and grief that young Octavius
01:27:16and Marc Antony made themselves so strong.
01:27:19For with her death,
01:27:21that tidings came.
01:27:23With this she fell distraught,
01:27:25and her attendants absent.
01:27:27Swallowed fire.
01:27:32And died so?
01:27:35Even so.
01:27:38Ah, ye mortal gods.
01:27:42Speak no more of her.
01:27:44Give me a bowl of wine.
01:27:52In this,
01:27:53I bury all unkindness, Cassius.
01:27:55My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge.
01:28:03Come in, Titinius.
01:28:05Welcome, good Messala.
01:28:08Now sit me close about this taper here
01:28:10and call in question our necessities.
01:28:12Portia, mother of God.
01:28:14No more, I pray you.
01:28:20Messala,
01:28:22I have here received letters
01:28:24that young Octavius and Marc Antony
01:28:26come down upon us with a mighty power,
01:28:28bending their expedition toward Philippi.
01:28:30Myself have letters of the selfsame tenor.
01:28:32What do you think
01:28:34of marching to Philippi presently?
01:28:36I do not think it good.
01:28:38Your reason?
01:28:40Tis better that the enemy seek us.
01:28:42So shall he waste his means,
01:28:44weary his soldiers, doing himself offense.
01:28:46Whilst we, lying still,
01:28:48are full of rest, defense, and nimbleness.
01:28:49Good reasons must of force
01:28:51give place to better.
01:28:55People tricked Philippi on this ground
01:28:57to stand but in a forced affection,
01:28:59for they have grudged us contribution.
01:29:02Hear me, good brother.
01:29:04Under your pardon,
01:29:06you must note beside
01:29:08that we have tried the utmost of our friends.
01:29:10Our legions are brimful.
01:29:12Our cause is right.
01:29:14The enemy increase it every day.
01:29:16We at the height are ready to decline.
01:29:18There is a tide in the affairs of men
01:29:20which taken at the flood
01:29:22leads on to fortune.
01:29:24Omitted,
01:29:26all the voyage of their life
01:29:28is bound in shallows and in miseries.
01:29:31On such a full sea are we now afloat.
01:29:36And we must take the current
01:29:38when it serves
01:29:40or lose our ventures.
01:29:48Then, with your will, go on.
01:29:50We'll along ourselves
01:29:52and meet them at Philippi.
01:29:55The deep of night
01:29:57is crept upon our talk
01:29:59and nature must obey necessity
01:30:01which we will niggard
01:30:03with our little rest.
01:30:05There is no more to say?
01:30:07No more. Good night.
01:30:09Early tomorrow will we rise and hence.
01:30:11Lucius, my gown.
01:30:13Farewell, good Samar.
01:30:15Good night, Titinius.
01:30:17Noble Cassius.
01:30:19Good night
01:30:21and good repose.
01:30:23Oh, my dear brother.
01:30:25This was an ill beginning of the night.
01:30:28Never come
01:30:30such division between ourselves.
01:30:33But it not, Brutus.
01:30:36Everything is well.
01:30:39Good night, my lord.
01:30:41Good night, good brother.
01:30:43Good night, Lopez.
01:30:45Farewell.
01:30:47Everyone.
01:31:03How ill this taper brings.
01:31:15Who comes here?
01:31:18I think it is the weakness of mine eyes
01:31:21that shapes this monstrous apparition.
01:31:28It comes upon me.
01:31:36Art thou anything?
01:31:40Art thou some god?
01:31:42Some angel or some devil
01:31:44that makes my blood cold
01:31:45and my hair to stare.
01:31:50Speak to me what thou art.
01:31:53Thy evil spirit, Brutus.
01:31:57Why comes thou?
01:31:59To tell thee thou shall see me
01:32:01at Philippi.
01:32:05Well, then I shall see thee again?
01:32:08Ay.
01:32:10At Philippi.
01:32:15At Philippi.
01:32:45At Philippi.
01:33:15At Philippi.
01:33:17At Philippi.
01:33:19At Philippi.
01:33:21At Philippi.
01:33:23At Philippi.
01:33:25At Philippi.
01:33:27At Philippi.
01:33:29At Philippi.
01:33:31At Philippi.
01:33:33At Philippi.
01:33:38Now, Antony,
01:33:40I hope sir answer it.
01:33:42You said the enemy would not come down
01:33:43from the southern regions and upper regions.
01:33:45It proves not so.
01:33:47Their battles are at hand.
01:33:49They mean to warn us at Philippi here.
01:33:51Answering before we do demand of them.
01:33:53I am in their bosoms
01:33:55and I know wherefore they do it.
01:33:57They come down with fearful bravery
01:33:59thinking by this
01:34:01to fasten in our thoughts
01:34:03that they have courage.
01:34:06But it is not so.
01:34:08Prepare you generals.
01:34:10The enemy comes on in gallant show.
01:34:11Their bloody sign of battle is hung out
01:34:13and something to be done immediately.
01:34:17Octavius,
01:34:19lead your legions softly on
01:34:21upon the left hand of the even field.
01:34:23Upon the right hand, I.
01:34:25Keep thou the left.
01:34:30Why do you cross me in this exigen?
01:34:33I do not cross you
01:34:35but I will do so.
01:34:41Go.
01:35:12They stand and would have fallen.
01:35:15Stand fast, Lysilius.
01:35:17We must out and talk.
01:35:29Make haste.
01:35:31Make haste.
01:35:33Make haste.
01:35:36Make haste.
01:35:38Make haste.
01:35:40Make forth.
01:35:42The generals would have some words.
01:35:44Stir not until the signal.
01:36:10Words
01:36:12before blows.
01:36:14Is it so, countrymen?
01:36:16Not that we love words better as you do.
01:36:18Good words are better
01:36:20than bad strokes, Octavius.
01:36:22With your bad strokes, Brutus,
01:36:24you gave good words
01:36:26and your vile daggers
01:36:28hacked one another in the side of Caesar.
01:36:30You showed your teeth like apes
01:36:32and fawned like hounds
01:36:34and bowed like bondmen
01:36:36kissing and kissing
01:36:37and bowed like bondmen
01:36:39kissing Caesar's feet.
01:36:41You flatterers.
01:36:43Flatterers.
01:36:45Now, Brutus, thank yourself.
01:36:47This tongue had not offended so today
01:36:49if Cassius might have ruled.
01:36:51Come, come, the cause.
01:36:53If arguing make us sweat,
01:36:55the proof of it will turn to redder drops.
01:36:57Look.
01:36:59I draw a sword against conspirators.
01:37:01When think you that the sword goes up again?
01:37:03Never.
01:37:05Till Caesar's three and thirty wounds
01:37:07till Octavius Caesar
01:37:09shall add his slaughter
01:37:11to the sword of traitors.
01:37:13Caesar, thou shalt not die by traitor's hand.
01:37:15So I hope.
01:37:17I was not born to die on Brutus' sword.
01:37:19Oh, if thou wert the noblest
01:37:21of thy strain, young man,
01:37:23thou couldst not die more honorable.
01:37:26A peevish schoolboy,
01:37:28worthless of such honor,
01:37:30joined with a masker and a reveler.
01:37:33Old Cassius still defiant,
01:37:34traitors, hurl we in your teeth.
01:37:36If you dare fight today,
01:37:38come to the field.
01:37:40If not, when you have stomachs,
01:37:42come, Antony, away.
01:37:50Why now, blow wind,
01:37:52swell below and swim back.
01:37:56The storm is up.
01:37:58All is on the hazard.
01:37:59Now, most noble Brutus,
01:38:01the gods today stand friendly,
01:38:04that we may, lovers in peace,
01:38:06lead on our days to age.
01:38:08The same day must end the work
01:38:10the ides of March begun.
01:38:13And whether we shall meet again,
01:38:15I know not.
01:38:17Therefore our everlasting farewell take.
01:38:20Forever and forever farewell, Cassius.
01:38:23If we do meet again,
01:38:25why, we shall smile.
01:38:26If not,
01:38:28why, then, this parting was well made.
01:38:31Forever and forever farewell, Brutus.
01:38:35If we do meet again,
01:38:37we'll smile indeed.
01:38:39If not, tis true,
01:38:41this parting was well made.
01:38:43Why, then, lead on.
01:38:52All that a man might know,
01:38:53the end of this day's business,
01:38:55had it come.
01:38:57But it suffice it
01:38:59that the day will end,
01:39:01and then the end is known.
01:39:24Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:39:26And give these two Cassius legions
01:39:28on the other side.
01:39:30Let them come on at once.
01:39:32For I perceive a cold demeanour
01:39:34in Octavius' wing,
01:39:36and sudden push
01:39:38give them the overthrow.
01:39:40Ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:39:42Let them all come on.
01:39:53Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:39:55Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:39:57Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:39:59Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:01Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:03Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:05Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:07Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:09Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:11Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:23Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:25Ride, ride, Vassalla, ride.
01:40:40Be thou my witness, Vassalla,
01:40:42that, against my will,
01:40:44am I compelled to set upon one battle
01:40:46all our liberties.
01:40:50Coming from Sardis,
01:40:51On our forward ensign, two mighty eagles fell.
01:40:54And there they perched, gorging and feeding from our soldiers' hands.
01:41:00This morning they fled away and gone.
01:41:03In their steds do ravens, crows and kites fly awry.
01:41:09Down would look on us as we were sickly prey.
01:41:13Their shadows seem a canopy most fatal.
01:41:16On which our army lies ready to give up the ghost.
01:41:19Believe not so.
01:41:24I but believe it partly.
01:41:27For I am fresh of spirit and resolve to meet all dangers very constantly.
01:42:16For I am fresh of spirit and resolve to meet all dangers very constantly.
01:42:46For I am fresh of spirit and resolve to meet all dangers very constantly.
01:43:16For I am fresh of spirit and resolve to meet all dangers very constantly.
01:43:46To me!
01:43:54To me!
01:44:16To me!
01:44:20Go back!
01:44:35Look, Titinius, look!
01:44:37The villains fly!
01:44:38This ensign here of mine was turning back a smoother coward.
01:44:41O Cassius, Brutus gave the word too early.
01:44:43I mean, some advantage on Octavius took it too eagerly.
01:44:46His soldiers fell to spoil.
01:44:48What's we by answering are all enclosed.
01:44:51Fly further off, my lord, fly further off.
01:44:54Mark Antony's in your tents, my lord.
01:44:56This hill is far enough.
01:44:58So close, Titinius.
01:45:00Are those my tents where I perceive the fire?
01:45:03Titinius, if our love is me, mount thou my horse and hide thy spurs in him.
01:45:06That I may rest assured whether you untook me friend or enemy.
01:45:09Go Pindarus, get higher on the hill.
01:45:12My sight was never thick.
01:45:14Regard, Titinius, and tell me what thou know'st about the field.
01:45:29This day I breathe it first.
01:45:34This is my birthday.
01:45:38Time has come round.
01:45:41Where I did begin, there shall I end.
01:45:47My life is run his compass.
01:45:52Sirrah, what news?
01:45:53Titinius is enclosed at roundabout with horsemen that make to him on the spur.
01:45:58Yet he spurs on.
01:46:00Now they are almost on him.
01:46:02And hark, they shout for joy.
01:46:05Come down, behold no more.
01:46:08O, coward that I am to live so long.
01:46:12I see my best friend tamed before my face.
01:46:18Did it come to that?
01:46:20In Parthia did I take thee prisoner.
01:46:23And then I swore thee, saving of thy life,
01:46:25that whatsoever I did bid thee do, thou shouldst attempt it.
01:46:28Come now, keep thy oath.
01:46:30Now be a freeman, and with this good sword that ran through Caesar's bowels,
01:46:33search this bosom.
01:46:35Stand not to answer.
01:46:36Take thou the hilts, and when my face is covered,
01:46:38as it is now, guide thou the sword.
01:46:49Caesar, thou art revenged.
01:46:53Even with the sword that killed thee.
01:47:05Caesar!
01:47:19Hussein.
01:47:30O Julius Caesar,
01:47:33thou art mighty yet.
01:47:36Thy spirit walks abroad, and turns our swords in our own proper entry.
01:47:41The son of Rome is dead.
01:47:46Our day is gone.
01:47:49Why didst thou bid me forth, brave Cassius?
01:47:53Did I not meet thy friends?
01:47:56And did they not put on my brows this wreath of victory,
01:47:59and bid me give it thee?
01:48:02Didst thou not hear their shouts?
01:48:16The last of all the Romans fare thee well.
01:48:22Friends,
01:48:26I owe more tears to this dead man
01:48:29than you shall see me pay.
01:48:42I shall find time, Cassius.
01:48:46I shall find time.
01:48:48I shall find time.
01:48:58It's too brutal.
01:49:07This is uprootous, friend.
01:49:10Keep this man safe.
01:49:18Keep this man safe.
01:49:49Come, poor remains of friends.
01:49:52Rest on this rock.
01:50:13Put your longingness lest await.
01:50:15Put your longingness lest await.
01:50:17What says, my lord?
01:50:19Why this, Volumnius.
01:50:21The ghost of Caesar
01:50:24hath appeared to me two several times by night.
01:50:28At Sardis once,
01:50:30and this last night here,
01:50:32in Philippi Fields.
01:50:35I know my hour is come.
01:50:37Not so, my lord.
01:50:39Nay, I am sure it is, Volumnius.
01:50:41Thou seest the world, Volumnius, how it goes.
01:50:44Our enemies have beat us to the pit.
01:50:48It is more worthy to leap in ourselves
01:50:50than tarry till they push us.
01:50:52Good Volumnius,
01:50:54thou know'st that we two went to school together.
01:50:58Even for that, a love of old, I pray thee.
01:51:03Hold thou my sword, Hilt, whilst I run on it.
01:51:07That's not an office for a friend, my lord.
01:51:09Fly, my lord, fly. There's no towing here.
01:51:15Farewell to you,
01:51:17and you, Volumnius.
01:51:20Countryman, my heart doth joy
01:51:22that yet in all my life
01:51:24I found no man but he was true to me.
01:51:28I shall have glory by this losing day,
01:51:31more than Octavius and Mark Antony
01:51:34by this vile conquest shall attain unto.
01:51:39By this vile conquest,
01:51:41more than Octavius shall attain unto.
01:51:45But fare you well at once,
01:51:48for Brutus' tongue
01:51:50hath almost vended his life's history.
01:51:55Night hangs upon mine eyes.
01:51:58My bones would rest
01:52:00that have but laboured to attain this hour.
01:52:03Fly, my lord, fly. Hence I will follow.
01:52:08I pray thee, straight home.
01:52:11Thou art a fellow of a good respect.
01:52:14Thy life hath had some smatch of honour in it.
01:52:20Hold thou my sword,
01:52:21and turn away thy face while I do run upon it.
01:52:26Wilt thou, straight home?
01:52:29Give me your hand first.
01:52:32Fare you well, my lord.
01:52:33Farewell, good Strato.
01:52:41Caesar, now be still.
01:52:44I killed not thee,
01:52:46with half so good a will.
01:53:11What man is that?
01:53:13My master's man.
01:53:21Where is thy master?
01:53:23Free from the bond he juried, my lord.
01:53:26Conquerors can but make a fire of him,
01:53:29for Brutus only overcame himself,
01:53:32and no man else hath honour by his death.
01:53:41How died he, Strato?
01:53:45I held the sword, and he did run on it.
01:53:56This was the noblest Roman of them all.
01:54:10All the conspirators, save only he,
01:54:12did that they did in envy of great Caesar.
01:54:16He only, in general honest thought of common good to all,
01:54:20made one of them.
01:54:23His life was gentle.
01:54:27The elements so mixed in him
01:54:29that nature might stand up and say to all the world,
01:54:36this was a man.
01:54:40This was a man.
01:55:10THE END
