(they apply the aspics)

Cleopatra. Already, death, I feel thee in my veins;

I go with such a will to find my lord,

That we shall quickly meet.

A heavy numbness creeps through every limb,

And now ’tis at my head: my eyelids fail

And my dear love is vanished in a mist.

Where shall I find him, where? O turn me to him,

And lay me on his breast—Caesar, thy worst;

Now part us if thou canst.
