An humble middle-

CAESAR:
I must forbid thee, Cimber.
These couchings and these lowly courtesies
Might fire the blood of ordinary men,
And turn pre-ordinance and start prescript
Into the police of children. Be non fond,
To call up that Caesar bears such rebel blood
That volition be thaw'd from the truthful quality
With that which melteth fools; I mean, sugariness words,
Low-crooked court'sies and base spaniel-fawning.

As low every bit to thy foot doth Cassius autumn,
To beg enfranchisement for Publius Cimber.

CAESAR:
I could be well moved, if I were as yous:
If I could pray to motility, prayers would motion me:
Only I am abiding as the northern star,
Of whose truthful-fix'd and resting quality
There is no young man in the empyrean.
The skies are painted with unnumber'd sparks,
They are all burn and every one doth smooth,
Simply there's but one in all doth hold his place:
So in the world; 'tis furnish'd well with men,
And men are flesh and blood, and humble;
Yet in the number I do know only ane
That unassailable holds on his rank,
Unshaked of motion: and that I am he,
Allow me a little prove it, even in this;
That I was abiding Cimber should be banish'd,
And abiding do remain to proceed him so.

And role the numbers.

And public reasons shall be rendered
Of Caesar'southward decease.

--Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved
Rome more than. Had you rather Caesar were living and
die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live
all gratis men? As Caesar loved me, I weep for him;
as he was fortunate, I rejoice at it; every bit he was
valiant, I honour him: but, as he was aggressive, I
slew him. There is tears for his love; joy for his
fortune; honour for his valour; and death for his
ambition. Who is here so base that would be a
bondman? If any, speak; for him have I offended.
Who is here and so rude that would not be a Roman? If
any, speak; for him have I offended. Who is here so
vile that volition not love his country? If whatsoever, speak;
for him have I offended. I pause for a answer.

All:
None, Brutus, none.

BRUTAS:
Then none have I offended. I have done no more to
Caesar than you lot shall exercise to Brutus. The question of
his death is enrolled in the Capitol; his glory not
extenuated, wherein he was worthy, nor his offences
enforced, for which he suffered expiry
Here comes his body, mourned by Mark Antony: who,
though he had no hand in his death, shall receive
the benefit of his dying, a place in the
democracy; every bit which of yous shall not? With this
I depart,--that, every bit I slew my best lover for the
good of Rome, I have the same dagger for myself,
when information technology shall please my country to need my death.

ALL:
Alive, Brutus! live, live!

Showtime Citizen:
Bring him with triumph home unto his house.

Second Denizen:
Give him a statue with his ancestors.

Third Citizen:
Permit him be Caesar.

Quaternary Denizen:
Caesar's better parts
Shall be crown'd in Brutus.

First Citizen:
We'll bring him to his house
With shouts and clamours.

BRUTUS:
My countrymen-

2nd Denizen:
Peace, silence! Brutus speaks.

First Citizen:
Peace, ho!

BRUTUS:
Good countrymen, let me depart alone,
And, for my sake, stay here with Antony:
Do grace to Caesar'due south corpse, and grace his oral communication
Disposed to Caesar's glories; which Mark Antony,
By our permission, is let'd to make.
I do entreat you, not a man depart,
Save I lone, till Antony have spoke
[Exit BRUTUS]
