SECOND ASSASSIN

A boy!
And fair of face as angels

FIRST ASSASSIN

If the nets
Snare not this fish betimes ere others feed,
None that shall heave it airward for the sun
To mock and mar shall say so. Bring him down.
Tiber hath fed on choicer fare than we
May think to feed his throat with ere we die.

[Exeunt with the body.
