Go forth, Agrippa, and begin the fight:

Our will is, Antony be took alive^{1 note};
Make it so known.

Agr.
Cæsar, I shall. [Exit Agrippa.

Prove this a prosperous day, the three-nook'd world
Shall bear the olive freely^{2 note}

Plant those that have revolted in the van,

Sold.
Enobarbus, Antony
Hath after thee sent all thy treasure^{4 note}, with
His bounty overplus: The messenger
Came on my guard; and at thy tent is now,
Unloading of his mules.

Eno.
I give it you.

Sold.
Mock not^{5 note}, Enobarbus.
I tell you true: Best^{6 note} you saf'd the bringer^{7 note}


Out of the host; I must attend mine office,
Or would have done't myself. Your emperor
Continues still a Jove. [Exit Soldier.

Eno.
I am alone the villain of the earth,
And feel I am so most^{8 note}

Shall outstrike thought: but thought will do't, I feel^{1 note}.
I fight against thee!—No: I will go seek
Some ditch, wherein to die; the foul'st best fits
My latter part of life. [Exit.
