CASSIUS.
What did he say?

BRUTUS
He wish'd me good Success.

CASSIUS.
See, he makes up to Cæsar earnestly.
We are betrayed! But I will kill my self;
Cæsar, or Cassius, never shall go back.

BRUTUS.
There is no Danger, Cassius; Cæsar smiles;
You may perceive they talk of something else.

DECIMUS BRUTUS.
Let's all kneel round to beg for Cymber's Life.

BRUTUS.
'Tis mean at any time, but needless now;
Go you, I will not kneel.

CASSIUS.
Well, what you please.
Casca strikes first; but stay, Cæsar will speak.
