Oct. Is it so, sir? 96
Cæs. Most certain. Sister, welcome; pray you,
Be ever known to patience; my dearest sister!
Exeunt.
Scene Seven
[Antony's Camp, near to the Promontory of Actium]
Enter Cleopatra and Enobarbus.
Cleo. I will be even with thee, doubt it not.
Eno. But why, why, why?
Cleo. Thou hast forspoke my being in these wars,
And sayst it is not fit.
Eno. Well, is it, is it? 4
Cleo. If not denounc'd against us, why should not we
Be there in person?
Eno. [Aside.] Well, I could reply:
If we should serve with horse and mares together,
The horse were merely lost; the mares would bear 8
A soldier and his horse.
Cleo. What is 't you say?
Eno. Your presence needs must puzzle Antony;
Take from his heart, take from his brain, from's time,
What should not then be spar'd. He is already 12
Traduc'd for levity, and 'tis said in Rome
That Photinus a eunuch and your maids
Manage this war.
Cleo. Sink Rome, and their tongues rot
