Be witness to me, O thou blessed moon, When men revolted shall upon record Bear hateful memory, poor Enobarbus did 1st Sold. Enobarbus ! Sd Sold. Peace; Hark further. Eno. O sovereign mistress of true melancholy, May hang no longer on me: Throw my heart Which, being dried with grief, will break to powder, Nobler than my revolt is infamous, Forgive me in thine own particular; But let the world rank me in register A master-leaver, and a fugitive: O Antony! O Antony! 2d Sold. Let's speak To him. [Dies. 1st Sold. Let's hear him, for the things he speaks May concern Cæsar. 3d Sold. Let's do so. But he sleeps. 1st Sold.

Come on then; He may recover yet. [Exeunt with the Body. SCENE X.-Between the two Camps. Enter ANTONY and SCARUS, with Forces, marching. Ant. Their preparation is to-day by sea; We please them not by land. Scar. For both, my lord. Ant. I would, they'd fight i' the fire, or in the air; Shall stay with us: order for sea is given; [Exeunt.

Yet they're not join'd: Where yonder pine does stand, I shall discover all: I'll bring thee word Straight, how 'tis like to go. Scar. Swallows have built In Cleopatra's sails their nests: the augurers [Exit. Say, they know not,-they cannot tell ;-look grimly, And dare not speak their knowledge. Antony Is valiant, and dejected; and, by starts, His fretted fortunes give him hope, and fear, Alarum afar off, as at a Sea Fight. Re-enter ANTONY. Ant. All is lost; This foul Egyptian hath betrayed me : My fleet hath yielded to the foe; and yonder Like friends long lost.-Triple-turn'd whore! 'tis thou I have done all :-Bid them all fly, be gone.
