1 If we be not relieved within this hour, 2 We must return to the court of guard: the night 3 Is shiny; and they say we shall embattle 4 By the second hour i' the morn.
Second Soldier
5 This last day was 6 A shrewd one to's.
Enter DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS
DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS
7 O, bear me witness, night,--
Third Soldier
8 What man is this?
Second Soldier
9 Stand close, and list him.
DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS
10 Be witness to me, O thou blessed moon, 11 When men revolted shall upon record 12 Bear hateful memory, poor Enobarbus did 13 Before thy face repent!
First Soldier
14 Enobarbus!
Third Soldier
15 Peace! 16 Hark further.
DOMITIUS ENOBARBUS
17 O sovereign mistress of true melancholy, 18 The poisonous damp of night disponge upon me, 19 That life, a very rebel to my will, 20 May hang no longer on me: throw my heart 21 Against the flint and hardness of my fault: 22 Which, being dried with grief, will break to powder, 23 And finish all foul thoughts. O Antony, 24 Nobler than my revolt is infamous, 25 Forgive me in thine own particular; 26 But let the world rank me in register 27 A master-leaver and a fugitive: 28 O Antony! O Antony!
Dies
Second Soldier
29 Let's speak To him.
First Soldier
30 Let's hear him, for the things he speaks 31 May concern Caesar.
Third Soldier
32 Let's do so. But he sleeps.
First Soldier
33 Swoons rather; for so bad a prayer as his 34 Was never yet for sleep.
Second Soldier
35 Go we to him.
Third Soldier
36 Awake, sir, awake; speak to us.
Second Soldier
37 Hear you, sir?
First Soldier
38 The hand of death hath raught him. Drums afar off 39 Hark! the drums 40 Demurely wake the sleepers. Let us bear him 41 To the court of guard; he is of note: our hour 42 Is fully out.
