Thr. Long live your majesty.[Exit.
Ner.There’s something good
In that man, Otho; spite of his dry mien
And Stoic fashion.
Oth.Nay, I like him not.
He’s hardly flesh and blood. Old Seneca
Is stiff and prosy enough; but if you pinch him,
You find he yields, shows softness here and there.
This man is merely stone, foursquare by rule.
Ner. Do you despise divine philosophy?
