Let come their leader[607] whom long peace hath quail'd,

Raw soldiers lately press'd, and troops of gowns,

Babbling[608] Marcellus, Cato whom fools reverence!

Must Pompey's followers, with strangers' aid

(Whom from his youth he brib'd), needs make him king?

And shall he triumph long before his time,

And, having once got head, still shall he reign?

What should I talk of men's corn reap'd by force,

And by him kept of purpose for a dearth?

Who sees not war sit by the quivering judge,320
